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
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup light brown sugar (packed)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and thoroughly 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 the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  4. Gently fold in the diced Granny Smith apples.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and spread evenly.
  6. Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  7. For the caramel glaze, melt the unsalted butter in a saucepan over medium heat, stir in heavy cream, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to simmer for 3-4 minutes.
  8. Remove from heat and add the remaining 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  9. Pour the warm caramel glaze over the cooled cake and serve. Enjoy!
