Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups peeled and chopped apples
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 3 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup sour cream, room temperature
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp milk
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar, sifted
  • Pinch of salt

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a bundt pan. Cream butter, granulated sugar, and 3/4 cup brown sugar until light, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Beat in eggs one at a time, then sour cream and vanilla until smooth.
  3. Whisk flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Fold into wet ingredients in two additions, then fold in apples.
  4. Spread batter in pan. Bake 50-55 minutes until a skewer comes out clean. Cool in pan 15 minutes, then invert onto a rack to cool completely.
  5. Melt 1/2 cup brown sugar and 2 tbsp butter over medium heat until bubbly. Stir in milk, remove from heat, and whisk in powdered sugar and salt. Drizzle over cool cake.

Notes

For the cleanest slices, let the glaze set for about 15 minutes before cutting. The cake tastes even better the next day, wrapped and kept at room temperature.
