Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 cups white sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 1/4 cups vegetable oil
- 3 eggs, beaten
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 1/2 cups apples, peeled and chopped
- 1 cup chopped walnuts
- 1 1/4 cups packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/3 cup milk
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the optimal temperature for baking, which is 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 175 degrees Celsius.
2
Next, take a moment to prepare the baking dish by greasing it with a suitable lubricant and then dusting it evenly with flour, ensuring an even surface for your cake to bake on.
3
Sift the dry ingredients - including flour, sugar, salt, and baking soda - into a large mixing bowl in one smooth motion. Create a central depression in the mixture, allowing for easy incorporation of the wet ingredients later on.
4
Add oil, eggs, and vanilla extract to the bowl, mixing everything together until you achieve a harmonious blend. The resulting batter should be thick and cohesive.
5
Introduce the chopped apples and nuts into the mixture, gently folding them in to avoid any damage to their delicate structure.
6
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish, making sure to cover the entire surface.
7
Bake the cake in your preheated oven for 40 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
8
In a separate saucepan, combine brown sugar, butter, and milk. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium heat.
9
Cook the glaze for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly and monitoring its consistency until it reaches a slightly thickened state.
10
Pour the warm glaze over the freshly baked cake, allowing it to set and infuse its rich flavors into every bite.
