Make cake: Sift together flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl. In a large bowl, with an electric mixer on medium-high speed, beat butter and sugar until light, about 5 minutes. Reduce speed to medium and beat in eggs, 1 at a time, mixing well after each addition and scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Beat in vanilla. With mixer on low speed, add flour mixture in 3 batches, alternating with milk. Fold in grated apples. Transfer to prepared pan.

While cake is still slightly warm, poke small holes in top with a toothpick or skewer. Pour about 1/2 of glaze over cake, letting it soak in for 1 to 2 minutes, then pour remaining glaze over cake. Scoop up any glaze that has dripped off and spoon over cake again. Allow to cool completely before serving.
