It is apple season! I love Fall apples. They have so much flavor and this year are plentiful in our backyard. I’ve been making everything that involves apples to use as many as possible. This apple bundt cake has been one of our favorites.
This apple bundt cake is definitely one of our new favorites. The first version had a frosting that I hated, but I loved the cake. So I made it again and just added a little powdered sugar as a topping. Honestly, it probably doesn’t even need the powdered sugar if you aren’t worried about the cake being pretty.
I didn’t use a particular type of apple. Honestly I couldn’t tell you what some of our old apple trees even are. I just chose the ripe apples off various trees and used those. I would suggest a sweet apple rather than a tart apple for this to be a dessert.
However, if you would like to make this cake for a breakfast to go with coffee you could use tart apples to cut down on the sweetness a little. If you’ve been around for very long you know I’m a big fan of fruity desserts for breakfast.
