How to Make Apple Bourbon Cake
- In a large resealable bag, combine the chopped apples and bourbon. Seal the bag and gently toss to coat the apples evenly.
- Let the apples marinate in the bourbon for 1 hour, occasionally shaking the bag to ensure all the apples are infused.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Grease and flour a 13x9 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the sugar, oil, and eggs using an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, and cloves.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in the marinated apples and walnuts (if using).
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Start checking for doneness around the 60-minute mark.
- Let the cake cool completely in the pan before serving. Enjoy warm or cold with your favorite topping, such as whipped cream, ice cream, or frozen yogurt.
