Preparation
- Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Spray a 10-to-12-cup Bundt pan with nonstick spray. Set aside.
- Whisk the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together in a large bowl until combined. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the oil, yogurt, brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla together until combined and creamy.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and slowly whisk until no large lumps remain. Carefully fold in the apple chunks.
- Spoon/pour the thick batter into the prepared bundt pan.
- Bake for 55–75 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the cake comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan set on a wire rack, then invert onto a serving plate once cooled.
Glazing
- Combine the butter, brown sugar, and heavy cream in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly until the butter has melted, then let the mixture come to a rapid boil.
- Boil for 1 minute. Turn the heat down to low, stir, and let simmer for 1 minute.
- Remove from heat and whisk in the sifted confectioners’ sugar. Allow glaze to cool for at least 10 minutes before spooning over the cake.
Notes
Cake freezes well up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator and allow to come to room temperature before serving.
