Lightly grease 9×12-inch baking pan. Combine apples and baking soda in non-metalic bowl and set aside. Cream sugars, butter, and egg in mixing bowl. Beat in flour and spices, then stir in oatmeal, apples, and nuts. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
Bake 30 to 35 minutes, or until cake begins to shrink from edges of pan and a cake tester inserted into center comes out clean. Cool in pan about 20 minutes, then cut into squares. Serve immediately.
