Apple Cinnamon Bundt Cake

Total Time: 1 hr 30 mins Preparation Time: 30 mins Cook Time: 1 hr

Ingredients

  • Servings: 12
  • 2 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar (it calls for light brown, but i used dark brown, and i really liked that)
  • 4 large eggs
  • 6 medium apples (keep from turning brown with a little lemon juice squeezed on the slices) or 4 large apples, peeled, cored and sliced 1/4 inch (keep from turning brown with a little lemon juice squeezed on the slices)
  • 1 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 2 -3 tablespoons water (i used apple juice, yum!)

Recipe

  • 1 preheat oven to 350, and prepare the 12 cup bundt pan (grease and flour if you don't have a non-stick).
  • 2 in a medium bowl, whisk the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, salt, and baking soda together.
  • 3 in a large bowl, melt the butter in the microwave, and add brown sugar and eggs, whisking until smooth.
  • 4 gradually whisk in dry ingredients just until combined- don't overmix.
  • 5 fold in the apples (it will look sort of like peanut butter coated apple slices, but don't worry- the batter bakes up around the apple slices) and spoon batter into the bundt pan, smoothing the top.
  • 6 bake until a tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean (about an hour).
  • 7 cool in the pan for about 15 minutes, and invert onto a rack placed over wax paper to cool completely.
  • 8 make the glaze by whisking the water (or apple juice) together with the confectioners' sugar adding just enough liquid to make the glaze thick but pourable.
  • 9 drizzle glaze over completely cooled cake, and let it firm up before serving.
