The Best Apple Cake Recipe Ever

• servings: 12 servings
• active time: 10 minutes
• total time: 1 hour 20 minutes

Ingredients

1 cup canola oil. 200 Gm

2 cups sugar. 400 Gm

3 eggs (large)

3 cups flour. 360 Gm

1½ teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon ground cloves

¼ teaspoon nutmeg

2 teaspoons cinnamon

2 teaspoons vanilla

3 cups apples (peeled, cored, and chopped fine (about 1½ pounds)

1 cup pecans (chopped)

1 Cup Raisins

4 tsp. Boiled Cider

½ cup butter (1 stick)

2-3 tablespoons milk or water

2 teaspoons cinnamon

3-4 cups powdered sugar

Directions

Preheat oven to 350F and lightly grease a Bundt pan with baking spray.

In a large mixing bowl, mix the oil, sugar, and eggs until well combined.

In a separate bowl. Whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon, and cloves.

Add the flour mixture to the large bowl and stir well to combine. Add vanilla and stir.

Fold in the apples and pecans and stir just enough to evenly distribute.

Transfer the batter to the prepared pan. I made cupcakes (~34)

Bake in the preheated (350F) oven for 70-75 minutes. Cupcakes baked for 22 1/2 minutes.

Remove the cake for the oven and allow it to cool in the Bundt pan for 15 minutes. Then, invert onto a plate and remove the pan.

To glaze:

Melt the butter, then add one cup of powdered sugar and the cinnamon. Stir well, then continue adding powdered sugar, alternating with a little milk, until desired consistency is reached. A very thin glaze will need less sugar, thicker will need more.

I did not ice or glaze the cupcakes. They were almost muffin-like, without the "muffin-top".
