Apple Dapple Wacky Cake

Recently (and I use that term as loosely as the Seven Dwarfs did when Snow White asked them when they had last washed...) I entered a giveaway over at the blog of Chef Dennis - More Than a Mount  Full: a Culinary Journey.  I was one of the winners chosen.  He and Girard's Salad Dressings gave me a variety of four bottles of those pretty gold labeled salad dressings.  The stipulation in winning, however, was that I create a recipe using one of the dressings.  When I read about Girard's Apple Poppy Seed Salad Dressing, I immediately knew I wanted to make a dessert with it.  Apple Cake.  A Frugal Apple Cake.  A Delicious Frugal Apple Cake.

Apple Dapple Wacky Cake: 

1 1/2 cups flour

1 cup brown sugar

1 heaping tsp baking soda

2 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp poppy seeds

1 apple, peeled, cored, chopped fine

apple juice

1/3 cup Girard's Apple Poppy Seed Salad Dressing

1 Tbsp lemon juice

1 tsp vanilla

Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl.  Put the apple in a one cup measure and fill in the nooks and crannies with apple juice.  Add the salad dressing, lemon juice and vanilla to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.  Add the apple/juice combo and stir until well combined.  Pour batter into a greased 7 X 11 pan.  Bake 350 degrees for 35 minutes or until done.
