Equipment

  • 1 standard 10-cup Bundt pan
  • or 2 small 5-cup Bundt pans optional

Ingredients

APPLE MIXTURE:

  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 6 apples peeled, cut in small chunks

CAKE:

  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup oil
  • ¼ cup orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt

GLAZE:

  • 2 cups confectioner’s sugar
  • ¼ cup water
  • 1 teaspoon corn syrup

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350℉.
  • Generously spray or grease and flour a standard Bundt cake pan or two 5-cup smaller Bundt pans.
  • In a small bowl, mix the cinnamon, sugar, and apples together. Set this aside while making the cake batter. It will create a liquid syrup which you will use also.
  • In a large bowl, by hand or with a mixer, beat the eggs, oil, orange juice, vanilla extract and sugar until smooth.
  • In another bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt and add it to the egg mixture.
  • Pour half of the cake batter into the pan.
  • Top with half the apples.
  • Spread the rest of the cake batter on top.
  • Spread the remaining apples and drizzle the liquid syrup from the apples all over the top too.
  • Bake at 350℉ for 70-80 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean.
  • Cool the cake in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes. With a knife, loosen the edges of the cake and invert it onto a serving plate.
  • Store at room temperature for 3 days or in the refrigerator for a week.

EXTRA TIP:

SUBSTITUTE two small 5-cup Bundt pans for the one standard size Bundt pan and bake them for 45-50 minutes.
OPTIONAL: Add 1 cup of chopped nuts to the apple mixture, or to the cake batter, or you can sprinkle some on top.
