The Perfect Apple Bundt Cake Recipe

October 27, 2017

Well, I tackled my first apple based recipe yesterday and boy was it delicious. Not that I ate the whole thing. I enjoyed just one piece and I have to tell you, it was out of this world. So good. I haven’t eaten a dessert like this in such a long time. The cake was sweet, moist and simply delicious.

The Recipe

I don’t know if I told you this or not, but I seemed to have acquired over 80 pounds of apples this year. There’s even more than that if I include the apples from the trees right here on my property. Needless to say, I have a lot of apples. If you’re interested, you can read about my latest apple picking adventure here. It was at this orchard that I picked and bought the large majority of the apples I’m trying to use up currently.

Anyway, this apple bundt cake recipe is everything you’d want it to be. It uses about four decent sized apples, so you know there’s going to be some great flavor on the interior. There’s tons of sweet and there’s tons of moisture as well. The outer crust has that caramelized texture, where it’s slightly harder then the interior. This makes for a nice distinction between the two and some very pleasant contrast to boot. Overall, this apple cake is one of the best dessert recipes I have prepared this year. It’s really, really good.

4 Medium Sized Apples, Cored, Peeled and Diced

Step-by-Step Instructions

I’d like to thank AllRecipes for this recipe. It’s simple, to the point and very good.

Pre-Heat Oven

Arrange your oven racks so one of them is in the center position. Then, pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees.

Prepare Apple Mixture

Add the diced apples to a medium sized bowl. Then, add the one tablespoon sugar and one teaspoon ground cinnamon to it and stir to combine.

Diced Apples


Sugared Apples

Remember, these apple pieces are going to maintain their shapes inside of the cake, so you should dice according to what you want to see in the final result. I’d go for a 1/2 inch dice.

Set the apples aside for later use.

Create Flour Mixture

In another medium sized bowl, combine the flour, baking soda and salt. Make sure these ingredients are mixed together well.

Create Sugar Mixture

In a large bowl, add the two cups of white sugar, oil, orange juice, vanilla extract and eggs. Mix these ingredients together well.

Sugar Mixture

Combine Ingredients

Add the flour mixture to the large bowl that has the sugar mixture in it. Mix these ingredients together well. Then, add the chopped walnuts to the bowl as well and mix them into everything else.

Apple Bundt Cake Batter

Pour the Batter

Grease a bundt cake pan with butter. Then, pour 1/3 of the batter into the pan, followed by half of the apples. Then, cover the apples with another 1/3 of the batter. On top of that, add the remaining apples. Finally, cover everything with the final 1/3 batter. That should use up everything you have just prepared.

Bake the Cake

Place the pan on the center rack of your oven. Set the timer to 60 minutes. Mine was absolutely perfect at this time. Begin to check yours at 55 minutes by sticking a toothpick into the top to see if it comes out clean. If it does, the cake is finished. When it is, remove it from the oven to cool.

Up Side Down Bundt Cake

Cool & Top with Sugar

After the cake has cooled for at least 20 minutes, hold a plate or a wire rack to the top of the bundt pan and flip the cake over. At that point, you should have a wonderful looking dessert.

Classic Bundt Cake

Add a bit of confectioners sugar to a sifter and sift some on top of the cake until it has a light dusting.

When that’s finished, cut into pieces and serve. Enjoy!

About Jay Gaulard

My name is Jay Gaulard and I'm what I like to call an "inexperienced chef," if that's not an oxymoron. I initially decided to immerse myself into the world of food and cooking in May of 2015, when I began growing, in earnest, my first garden. The garden produced a wonderful yield and with some newfound confidence, my hobby of learning about what I eat took shape. Currently, I'm enrolled in an online cooking school and am quite active with the culinary community. I primarily write posts about what I research and learn along the way.
