Apple Harvest Bundt Cake

Apple Harvest Bundt Cake

Ingredients

2 cups white sugar

• 1 1/2 cups vegetable oil
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 3 eggs
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 medium Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored and chopped
• 1 cup chopped walnuts
• 1/2 cup butter or margarine
• 2 teaspoons milk
• 1/2 cup brown sugar

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). 
2. Grease a 9 inch Bundt pan.
3. In a large bowl, beat the sugar, oil, vanilla, and eggs with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. 
4. Combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt; stir into the batter just until blended. Fold in the apples and walnuts using a spoon. 
5. Pour into the prepared pan.
6. Bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes in the preheated oven, until a toothpick inserted into the crown or the cake, comes out clean. 
7. Allow to cool for about 20 minutes then invert on to a wire rack.
8. 
   
9. Make the glaze by heating the butter, milk and brown sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar, then remove from the heat. Drizzle over the warm cake. I like to place a sheet of aluminum foil under the cooling rack to catch the drips for easy cleanup.
