Scale
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 4 cups peeled, cored, and chopped apples (about 4 medium apples)
- 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
- Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat together the sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla until well combined.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the chopped apples and nuts, if using.
- Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 60–70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15–20 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Dust with powdered sugar before serving, if desired.
Notes
- Granny Smith or Honeycrisp apples work well for this recipe.
- The cake can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerated for longer freshness.
- Adding nuts gives a nice crunch, but the cake is delicious without them too.
