GRANDMA'S APPLE NUT CAKE



Grandma's Apple Nut Cake image

This is my husband's favorite. His mom gave it to us many years ago. I have refined the recipe just a little since then. Please don't tell her...hehe. It doesn't need a frosting because it is so yummy just by itself, but it would dress it up to drizzle with a thin creamy icing. I had misplaced this recipe for the longest time and had thought I had lost it, so I hadn't made it for ages. My husband found it this weekend and I have made it twice since then. Both times it was gone before it was even all the way cooled, thanks to our 5 daughters. My husband and I barely managed to claim a few bites before it disappeared. I'm posting it here to share with everyone and to keep it from ever getting lost again. It's definately a keeper.

CAKE:
3 c flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 large eggs
1 c sugar
6 oz greek yogurt, plain
3/4 c oil, canola or vegetable
2 tsp ground fennel seed*
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 Tbsp orange zest, grated
4 c apples, peeled & diced (about 4 medium apples)
3/4 c dried cranberries
1/2 c pine nuts, toasted**
ICING:
2 c powdered sugar
3/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 c water

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • 2. In a bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, & salt. Set aside.
  • 3. In large bowl, beat together eggs and sugar, then add yogurt, oil, ground fennel, vanilla, & orange zest. Mix well.
  • 4. Slowly add dry ingredients to wet mixture. Mix until thoroughly combined. Fold in apples, cranberries, and pine nuts until fully incorporated and evenly distributed.
  • 5. Thoroughly coat 10" bundt pan with non-stick spray(or grease and flour pan well). Spread batter into pan evenly. Bake at 350 degrees for 55-60 minutes, or until toothpick or knife comes out clean. Let cool in pan for a few minutes, remove from pan and let cool completely on a rack.
  • 6. To make icing: sift together powdered sugar and cinnamon. Whisk in vanilla then whisk in water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until desired thickness/consistency and lump free. Pour over cake and let drizzle down sides.
  • 7. * Ground fennel is difficult to find in stores. Buy whole fennel seeds and grind finely in a spice grinder. ** To toast pine nuts, put nuts in a dry skillet and toast on medium heat for a few minutes until slightly golden brown. Stir often and watch closely as they can turn too brown/burn quickly.
