Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract (divided)
  • 3 large eggs
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 cups Granny Smith apples (peeled and diced)
  • ½ cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup light brown sugar (packed)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour a 10-cup bundt pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the granulated sugar, vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and eggs. Whisk until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add this to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  4. Fold in the diced apples.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and spread it out evenly.
  6. Bake for 55-65 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes before turning onto a wire rack.
  7. For the glaze, melt butter in a saucepan, stir in cream, brown sugar, and salt. Bring to a gentle boil, then simmer for 3-4 minutes. Add the remaining vanilla extract.
  8. Pour the glaze over the cooled cake and serve.

Notes

Thoroughly grease and flour the bundt pan to avoid sticking. Use room temperature eggs for smoother batter integration.
