How to Make Apple Dapple Cake

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan.
2. In a large bowl, cream together 2 large eggs, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, ½ cup vegetable oil, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ½ teaspoon salt.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
5. Gently fold in 4 cups peeled and diced apples and 1 cup chopped pecans.
6. Pour batter into the prepared tube pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
8. While the cake is cooling, prepare the frosting: In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup packed brown sugar, ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, and ¼ cup milk.
9. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat and simmer for 2 ½ minutes, stirring constantly.
10. Remove from heat and let the frosting cool slightly before spreading it evenly over the cooled cake.
