3 tablespoons sugar
3 cups sugar
3 teaspoons cinnamon
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 1/2 cups vegetable oil
3 eggs
3 cups chopped apples (about 3 apples)
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup raisins

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325°F Grease 10 tube pan, combine 3 Tablespoons sugar with 1 teaspoon cinnamon, coat pan with sugar mixture.
2. Mix flour, soda, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon; set aside. Beat oil and sugar until blended. Beat in eggs, one at a time, and then stir in apples and vanilla. Add flour mixture until blended; stir in pecans and raisins.
