How to Make Awesome Apple Cake

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and 1 ¾ cups of sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
In a small bowl, combine the buttermilk and diced apples.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
Stir in the nuts (if using).
Pour batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle evenly with the remaining ¼ cup of sugar.
Bake for 60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
