How to Make Amy S Apple Bundt Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease a bundt pan generously with butter, then dust with 1 teaspoon of flour, tapping out any excess. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar (or 3/4 cup Splenda), 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  4. Add 1/4 cup vegetable oil, 3/4 cup applesauce, and 2 large eggs. Mix until just combined.
  5. Gently fold in 2 cups peeled and chopped apples and 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans.
  6. Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan and spread evenly with a rubber spatula.
  7. Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the cake cool in the pan for 15-20 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Drizzle with a powdered sugar glaze made with orange juice (optional). Serve warm or at room temperature.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
