How to Make Whole Wheat Apple Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 13x9-inch baking pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups whole wheat flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg.
- Stir in 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Peel, core, and chop 4 medium apples (about 3 cups).
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup milk.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Gently fold in the chopped apples.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Cut into 32 pieces and enjoy!
