Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 2 cups white sugar; 1 1/2 cups vegetable oil; 2 teaspoons vanilla extract; 3 eggs; 3 cups all-purpose flour; 1 teaspoon baking soda; 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon; 1 teaspoon salt; 2 medium Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored and chopped; 1 cup chopped walnuts; 1/2 cup butter or margarine; 2 teaspoons milk; 1/2 cup brown sugar

Servings: persons

2 cups white sugar
1 1/2 cups vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 eggs
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
2 medium Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored and chopped
1 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup butter or margarine
2 teaspoons milk
1/2 cup brown sugar

1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9 inch Bundt pan.
2
In a large bowl, beat the sugar, oil, vanilla and eggs with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt; stir into the batter just until blended. Fold in the apples and walnuts using a spoon. Pour into the prepared pan.
3
Bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes in the preheated oven, until a toothpick inserted into the crown or the cake comes out clean. Allow to cool for about 20 minutes then invert on to a wire rack.
4
Make the glaze by heating the butter, milk and brown sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar, then remove from the heat. Drizzle over the warm cake. I like to place a sheet of aluminum foil under the cooling rack to catch the drips for easy clean up.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
