Apple Cinnamon Bundt Coffee Cake

Apple Cinnamon Bundt Cake

3 large Macintosh apples, peeled and sliced in thick pieces

2 1/4 cups sugar, divided

1 tablespoon cinnamon

3 cups flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 cup canola oil

1 tablespoon vanilla

1/2 cup apple juice

6 large eggs, beaten

In a large bowl, combine apple slices, 1/4 cup sugar, and cinnamon. Set aside.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 10-cup bundt pan with cooking spray and dust with flour. Set aside.

In a bowl, combine remaining 2 cups of sugar, flour, baking powder, and salt. Make a well and pour in oil, vanilla, apple juice, and eggs. Stir to just combine the ingredients and the flour mixture is incorporated.

In the bundt pan, put about one-half of the batter and top with the apples making sure they don’t touch the sides of the pan. Top with the remaining batter. Bake for about 1 hour or until the top of the cake is golden brown. A long skewer should come out clean when inserted into the cake.

Cool on a baking rake for 15 minutes. Run a knife around the pan and invert cake on a platter.
