Ingredients

  1. 2 cups white sugar
  2. 1 cup vegetable oil
  3. 3 eggs
  4. 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  5. 3 cups all-purpose flour
  6. 1 teaspoon baking soda
  7. 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  8. 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  9. ½ teaspoon salt
  10. 3 cups thinly sliced apples
  11. ½ cup chopped pecans
  12. ½ cup butter
  13. ½ cup firmly packed brown sugar
  14. 2 tablespoons milk
  15. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup fluted tube baking pan (such as a Bundt® pan).
  2. Combine white sugar and vegetable oil in the bowl of a stand mixer with a paddle attachment; beat in eggs and stir in vanilla extract.
  3. Combine flour, baking soda, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl. Stir flour mixture into egg mixture until just blended. Stir in apples and pecans by hand to form a very heavy batter. Pour into the prepared pan.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 1 hour and 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and leave cake in the pan.
  5. Combine butter, brown sugar, milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and cook until a thickened glaze is formed, about 1 minute.
  6. Pull the cake away from the sides of the pan with a fork. Pour glaze onto the cake immediately. Let cake cool in pan, about 10 minutes.
