I'm a hearth cook at Allaire State Park and we've baked this cake/pie for special events and all the voluteers loved it. At home I've used for birthdays and Easter. It is wonderful. This recipe is also easy to cut in half. Enjoy it!!

It's unusual to see a cake rise out of a pie crust. Wasn't too sweet, tastes like a coffee cake; the walnuts carry the flavor.
