Apple Harvest Pound Cake image

When apple season comes in I usually go to the orchard and get lots of apples to make delicious apple recipes. This one I especially enjoy. It consist of fresh apples, chopped nuts and a divine caramel sauce which makes this cake. I have had this cake recipe for such a long time. I believe I got it from Betty Crocker...

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 c sugar
2 tsp vanilla
3 eggs
3 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
2 medium apples, peeled and finely chopped (2 cups)
1 c chopped nuts
caramel glaze
1/2 c butter or margarine
1/2 c packed brown sugar
2 tsp milk

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour 12-cup fluted tube/bundt cake pan. In large bowl, beat granulated sugar, oil, vanilla and eggs with electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Beat in flour, salt and baking soda until smooth. Stir in apples and nuts. Pour into pan.
  • 2. Bake 60 to 90 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 20 minutes. Remove from pan to cooling rack. In 2-quart saucepan, heat all glaze ingredients to boiling, stirring occasionally. Boil 2 minutes, stirring constantly; remove from heat. Spoon glaze over warm cake.

This cake is a perfect way to use up leftover apples. It's also a great make-ahead dessert.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I omitted the pecans from the recipe. The cake was still delicious.

I didn't have any pecans on hand, so I used walnuts instead. They worked just as well.

This apple harvest pound cake was a delight! The cake was moist and flavorful, with a perfect balance of sweetness and tartness from the apples. I especially loved the crunchy pecan topping. It added a nice textural contrast to the soft cake.
