Ingredients
  

Cake

  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups Vegetable oil
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 3 large apples peeled and cut into large pieces
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts optional

Glaze

  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour a 12-cup Bundt Pan and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Sift two additional times and set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine oil and both sugars, and mix until well blended.
  • Add eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Add vanilla and mix again.
  • Add the sifted dry ingredients to the batter and mix thoroughly. By hand, fold in apples and walnuts and mix until evenly combined.
  • Spoon the batter into the prepared bundt pan. Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
  • Remove cake from the oven and allow to cool in the bundt pan for 20 minutes.
  • While the cake is cooling, prepare the glaze. In a saucepan, over medium heat, combine all of the glaze ingredients. Bring to a boil and allow the mixture to boil for 1 minute.
  • Remove the cake from the pan, onto a serving plate. Spoon the glaze over the warm cake.
  • Cool for a little longer before serving.
