Jewish apple cake
Jewish apple cake is a dense cake made with apples and sold mostly in Pennsylvania in the United States. Apples are common in Jewish Ashkenazi cooking and are a part of the traditional food served during the Jewish holiday of Rosh Hashanah. Jewish apple cake is traditionally made without dairy products, and may, therefore, be eaten with meals containing meat, in accordance with Jewish dietary laws of kashrut, which forbid the mixing of meat and milk products in the same meal.
It is suspected to have originated in Poland.
