Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 15.25 ounce box Yellow cake mix (I used Betty Crocker Yellow Super Moist)
3/4 cup apple cider (NOT apple juice)
1/4 cup water (Room Temperature. Note: If you want a stronger apple cider taste, omit the water and use one full cup of apple cider)
½ cup apple sauce (we used cinnamon apple sauce, not chunky)
3 large eggs (room temperature)
¼ tsp cinnamon (more if you like it really cinnamony! )
1 tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla
2 tablespoons cinnamon (depending on how much cinnamon you prefer)
¼ cup sugar
¼ cup melted butter
1 cup powdered sugar
¼ cup apple cider

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the dry cake mix, apple cider, apple sauce, water, and eggs. Add in the cinnnamon (¼ tsp,) brown sugar and vanilla to the cake mix batter. (See "recipe options" in notes)
  • Pour mix into a well greased & floured bundt pan (we used Baker's Joy. This has flour in it to make sure it doesn't stick.)
  • Place bundt pan on center rack and bake for 40-45 minutes. Test with a toothpick by sticking into the middle of the cake, if it comes out clean it is ready. Remove from heat and allow to cool on a wire rack for 20 minutes.

APPLE-CIDER DOUGHNUT CAKE



Apple-Cider Doughnut Cake image

If you love the apple-cider doughnuts often sold at farmers' markets, you'll love this cake! Baked in a Bundt pan, it's essentially a giant cakey doughnut, made a little more wholesome with whole-wheat flour. A blend of olive oil and applesauce helps keep it moist. This classic fall dessert recipe appears in our cookbook, "A New Way to Bake" (Clarkson Potter). Martha also made this recipe on "Martha Bakes" episode 802.
