I found this recipe on the food network however I had to tweak it a little I didn't care for the glaze I used my own and I used pecans instead of walnuts, I also peeled the apples.
I had to slice the cake for the pictures, the recipe said to oil the pan which I should have added flour, so some of the cake stuck to the pan...lol wasn't pretty for pictures, so I sliced first
- 3
cups diced Granny Smith apples, about 3 apples
- 1
cup lightly toasted chopped walnuts
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1
teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 3 cups all purpose unbleached flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1
teaspoon salt
- 2
cups sugar
- 1 1/4 cups vegetable oil
- 3
eggs
*Honey Glaze:
- 1
cup confectioners' sugar
- 2
tablespoons honey
- 2
tablespoons milk
My Glaze
- 2 T butter melted:
- 1 c powdered sugar
- ½ t vanilla
- 3 T warm milk
*Try the honey glaze you may like it...however if not please feel free to give mine a shot*
*Glaze: Add all the ingredients to a small bowl
and stir until smooth. Set the bowl aside.
Cake: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Lightly
grease a Bundt pan or tube pan.
In a bowl, mix together the apples, walnuts,
vanilla, and cinnamon In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, and
salt.
Using an electric mixer beat the sugar, oil, and
eggs in a large bowl. Add in the dry ingredients and beat until completely
combined. Fold in the apple mixture.
Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and bake
for 1 hour and 30 minutes or until a tester inserted into the middle of the
cake comes out clean.
Allow the cake to fully cool in the pan, about 1
hour, and then turn it out onto a plate.
Drizzle the apple cake with some of the honey
glaze, serve and enjoy!
Tips:
1. The batter will be very thick more like a cookie dough or bread dough
2. Oil and flour your pan
2. Cake taste delicious next day warmed
