Mom put the "ape" back into "apricot."

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • 2 cups of self-rising flour
  • 2 cups of sugar
  • 1 cup of cooking oil
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 small jars of apricot baby food
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon, ground
  • 1 teaspoon nutmeg, ground
  • 1 cup pecans, chopped
  1. Step 1

    Grind the cinnamon and nutmeg separately and chop the pecans.

  2. Step 2

    Mix the flour, sugar, oil, eggs, baby food, cinnamon and nutmeg in a large mixing bowl, then beat the mixture at a low setting with an electric mixer. The dry ingredients should only just get moistened. Then, beat the ingredients for 2 minutes at the high setting and stir in the pecans.

  3. Step 3

    Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan and spoon the batter into this.

  4. Step 4

    Bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes at 350 degrees until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.
