Number Of Ingredients 16

1-1/2 cups soft butter
2 cups granulated sugar
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
3 cups peeled grated apple (I used honeycrisp)
1 cup chopped walnuts
2 cups sifted powdered sugar
7 teaspoons apple cider
2 tablespoons melted butter
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375F.
Spray a 10-cup standard Bundt pan with Baker's release spray.
Cream butter with sugar in an electric mixer until smooth.
Add eggs one at a time, then vanilla.
Add flour, cinnamon, baking soda and salt gradually, mixing into a smooth batter.
Fold in apples and walnuts.
Spread batter evenly in the prepared Bundt pan and bake for one hour, or until a toothpick tests clean.
Cool in pan 15 minutes, then turn out and finish cooling on a wire rack.
Once the cake has finished cooling, whisk together the glaze and drizzle over the cake.
Allow glaze to set up and dry, 30-45 minutes.
