Ingredients

The following ingredients have 20 Servings
  • 4 - 5 medium apples (peeled and diced (3 cups))
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1-1/2 cups canola oil
  • 3 large eggs (slightly beaten)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1-1/2 cups walnuts (chopped)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 - 3 tablespoons milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  • Generously grease the bottom and sides of a 9x13-inch cake pan (or glass cake pan) with a tablespoon of butter.
  • Peel and dice 4 or 5 medium apples, discarding the cores and peels, to make 3 cups.
  • Whisk together sugar and oil in a large bowl. Add eggs and vanilla and whisk until well combined.
  • Add flour to the bowl and sprinkle with the salt, baking soda, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Using a wooden spoon, fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until combined. DO NOT over mix.
  • Next, fold in the apples and walnuts. The batter will be stiff. Pour (or spread) the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
  • Cool cake in the pan on a wire rack for 30 minutes before drizzling with the glaze.
