Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups (500 g) all-purpose flour
- 3 cups (600 g) granulated sugar
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 4 teaspoons apple pie spice
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 ½ cups apple cider, or apple juice
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- ¼ cup (½ stick / 57 g) unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons vanilla extract
- ¼ cup apple cider
- ½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons apple pie spice
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Generously grease a 10 to 12 cup Bundt pan with baking spray or butter and flour.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, apple pie spice, and kosher salt.
- In another bowl, mix the apple cider, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Combine the wet mixture with the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just mixed; the batter should be slightly thin, be careful not to overmix.
- Pour the batter evenly into the prepared Bundt pan.
- Bake for 50 to 65 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick in the thickest part of the cake.
- Allow to cool in the pan for 10 to 15 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack.
- Brush or drizzle ¼ cup of apple cider over the warm cake.
- Mix the sugar and apple pie spice in a small bowl. While the cake is warm, sprinkle and press this sugar mixture over the surface, ensuring even coverage.
- Let the cake cool completely before slicing.
Notes
Make sure to use room temperature eggs for better mixing.
Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick; it should come out with a few moist crumbs.
Allow the cake to cool slightly before applying the apple cider for better absorption.
