Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, is celebrated from sundown on Sept. 28 to nightfall on Sept. 30.
“A common greeting on Rosh Hashanah is shana tovah u’metukah, Hebrew for ‘a good and sweet new year.’ Many traditional Rosh Hashanah foods – apples and honey, raisin challah, honey cake and pomegranate — are eaten, in part, for this reason.”
Here is a wonderful Holiday Apple Cake recipe to feast upon this New Year.
Ingredients: 3 eggs, 2 cups sugar, 1 cup vegetable oil, 1/2 tsp. vanilla, 2 cups flour, 1 tsp. baking soda, 1/2 tsp. cinnamon, 1/4 tsp. nutmeg, 1/8 tsp. cloves, 1/8 tsp. ginger, pinch of salt, 2 cups Granny Smith apples peeled, cored and thinly sliced.
Butter and flour a Bundt pan. Preheat oven to 350°. In a medium bowl, beat eggs with sugar, then slowly add oil while constantly whisking. Stir in vanilla.
In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger and salt. Stir in egg mixture, then fold in apples.
Pour batter in Bundt pan and bake 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Cool for a few minutes, then flip over onto a plate. When cool, dust with powdered sugar. Enjoy!
