How to Make the Apple Bundt Cake
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) and greasing a Bundt cake pan. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg.
In a separate large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup of butter and 1 cup of sugar until light and fluffy. Add 3 eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
Next, alternate adding the dry ingredients and 1/2 cup of buttermilk to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined. Gently fold in 2 cups of peeled and chopped apples to add sweetness and moisture to the cake.
Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake the cake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Once done, allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
For an extra touch of sweetness, drizzle the cake with caramel sauce or dust it with powdered sugar before serving. You can also add chopped walnuts or raisins to the batter for added texture and flavor.
