With a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, gently stir apple slices into the batter. Turn into a buttered 9 inch pie pan and bake in a 350 degree oven for about 40 minutes. (It is a good idea to start checking the cake at about 35 minutes and continue baking until the cake is firm, and the apples are tender). Cool slightly. Cut into wedges while warm and serve with ice cream.
