Method 8 steps
Mix quickly the sugar and lemon rind in a food processor.
Add eggs and blend until it becomes a nice cream.
Continue blending while slowly adding the oil. Blend until well mixed and add vanilla.
In a separate bowl sift the dry ingredients all together (flour, allspice, nutmeg, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon).
Mix the dry ingredients slowly into the batter, blending until it becomes nice and thick.
Add grated apples and blend quickly into batter just to mix. Be sure not to overblend and shred the apples too much.
Add raisins, and pulse the processor as to just mix them in and not shred them.
Bake in a bundt pan for 55 minutes at approximately 320°F (160°C; gas mark 3) or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
