APPLE CINNAMON BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350, and prepare the 12 cup bundt pan (grease and flour if you don't have a non-stick).
• In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, salt, and baking soda together.
• In a large bowl, melt the butter in the microwave, and add brown sugar and eggs, whisking until smooth.
• Gradually whisk in dry ingredients just until combined- don't overmix.
• Fold in the apples (it will look sort of like peanut butter coated apple slices, but don't worry- the batter bakes up around the apple slices) and spoon batter into the bundt pan, smoothing the top.
• Bake until a tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean (about an hour).
• Cool in the pan for about 15 minutes, and invert onto a rack placed over wax paper to cool completely.
• Make the glaze by whisking the water (or apple juice) together with the confectioners' sugar adding just enough liquid to make the glaze thick but pourable.
• Drizzle glaze over completely cooled cake, and let it firm up before serving.

APPLE SOUR CREAM CINNAMON WALNUT BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Set oven to 350°F.
• Set oven rack to second-lowest position.
• Generously butter a bundt pan and then flour (shaking out excess flour).
• In a bowl mix together flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
• In a small food processor, PULSE the walnuts, 2-3 teaspoons cinnamon and 1/2 cup sugar until the nuts are chopped.
• Add in 1/4 cup melted butter and pulse once or twice to combine; set aside.
• To make the cake: In a large bowl beat the 1 cup softened butter with 1-1/4 cups sugar at high speed with an electric mixer for about 5 minutes.
• Add in eggs and beat well.
• Beat in sour cream and vanilla until smooth and fluffy (about 3 minutes).
• Reduce the speed to low and add in the flour mixture, mixing just until blended (the batter will be thick).
• Add in the chopped apples; mix to combine.
• Sprinkle half of the nut mixture evenly into bottom of the bundt pan.
• Spoon half of the batter on top of the nut mixture, spreading out with a spatula, then sprinkle the remaining nut mixture on top of the batter, then top/dollop with remaining cake batter, spreading out with a spoon.
• Bake for about 50 minutes, or until cake tests done.
• Cool cake in the pan on a rack for about 1 hour, then run a thin knife around the inner edges.
• Place rack on top of the pan, then flip to invert onto rack.
• Cool completely.
• *NOTE* this cake can be baked in a tube pan, just layer the cinnamon/nut mix twice between three layers of cake batter instead of sprinkling on the bottom of the pan. Layer as follows.
• A third of the cake batter in the bottom of the pan then sprinkle with half of the nut mixture, then another third batter on top, the the remaining nut mixture then the remaining third of cake batter.
• This method works quite well, but will produce a higher cake that might take a longer time to bake.
