Apple Coffee Cake

Preheat the oven to 350 °F. Lightly oil a 13×9×2-inch pan.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the apples with the sugar, raisins, and pecans. Mix well and let stand for 30 minutes.

Stir in the oil, vanilla, and beaten egg. Sift together the flour, baking soda, and cinnamon, then stir the dry mixture into the apple mixture about one-third at a time, just enough to moisten the dry ingredients.

Turn the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Cool the cake slightly before serving.
