Ingredients
2½ cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
1½ tsp ground cinnamon
3 large eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
½ cup brown sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
2 tsp vanilla extract
2½ cups chopped apples (about 2–3 medium apples)
½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
½ cup caramel sauce (for topping)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease and flour a 10-cup Bundt pan thoroughly.
- Peel and finely chop apples. Toast nuts if using for extra flavor.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
- In another bowl, whisk eggs, granulated sugar, brown sugar, oil, and vanilla until smooth and well combined.
- Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
- Fold in chopped apples and optional nuts.
- Pour batter into prepared Bundt pan, smoothing the top. Tap gently to remove air bubbles.
- Bake for 60–70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool in pan for 15–20 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, drizzle generously with warm caramel sauce before serving.
Notes
Mix diced pears with apples for a subtle twist.
Use dark brown sugar for deeper caramel notes.
Add dried cranberries or raisins for festive flavor.
Include nutmeg or allspice for extra warmth.
Swap caramel drizzle for cream cheese glaze for a tangy variation.
Warm leftover slices for 10–15 seconds to refresh texture and melt the caramel.
