FOR THE CAKE:
1 cup Chopped Pecans
1 cup Granulated Sugar
1 cup Packed Brown Sugar
3/4 cups Canola Oil
3/4 cups Applesauce
3 whole Eggs, Beaten
1 teaspoon Vanilla
3 cups All-purpose Flour
2 teaspoons Cinnamon
1 teaspoon Nutmeg
1/2 teaspoons Allspice
1 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Baking Soda
1-1/2 pound Peeled And Chopped Gala Apples (about 5 Apples)
FOR THE CREAM CHEESE FILLING:
1/4 cups Butter, Softened
8 ounces, weight Cream Cheese
1/2 cups Granulated Sugar
1 whole Egg
1 teaspoon Vanilla
2 Tablespoons All-purpose Flour
FOR THE PRALINE FROSTING:
1/2 cups Packed Brown Sugar
1/4 cups Butter
3 Tablespoons Milk
1 teaspoon Vanilla
1 cup Confectioners Sugar
Additional Pecans, For Garnish (optional)

1
Preheat the oven to 350u00b0F. Grease and flour a 14-cup bundt pan.
2
Start by toasting your pecans in the oven for 8-10 minutes or until fragrant. Be sure to toss halfway through cooking time. Set aside when they are done.
3
Prepare filling: Beat butter, cream cheese and sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in egg, vanilla and flour and mix until smooth. Set aside.
4
Prepare cake: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat sugars, canola oil and applesauce. Add in the eggs, one by one. Stir in vanilla.
5
In a separate bowl, combine flour, spices, salt and baking soda. Working in batches, add this to your wet mixture.
6
Remove bowl from mixer and fold in pecans and chopped apples.
7
Place 2/3 of the cake batter into the bundt pan. Spoon in the cream cheese filling and, using a paring knife, swirl around to incorporate evenly. Be sure to leave about an inch border, so that the cream cheese does not leak out while baking. Place the remaining 1/3 of the batter on top and bake for 60-75 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely on a wire rack.
8
Frosting the cake: Bring brown sugar, butter and milk to a boil in a small saucepan, whisking constantly. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Be careful, as mixture will bubble up violently! Gradually whisk in confectioners' sugar. Allow mixture to harden slightly and pour over completely cooled cake. Garnish with additional pecans, if desired.

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.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
