Number Of Ingredients 19

1 1/2 cups chopped apples
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon flour
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup finely chopped nuts (I use walnuts)
1 1/2 cups sugar
3/4 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
3 eggs
3 cups flour (all purpose or whole wheat)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups sour cream
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
1 -2 teaspoon milk

Steps:

Preheat oven to 325°F; grease a 12-cup Bundt pan or a 10x4-inch tube pan.
Prepare apple-nut filling: Cook all ingredients, except nuts, over medium heat, stirring constantly. Cook until apples are tender. This will take approximately 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in nuts. Set aside.
Combine sugar, butter, vanilla and eggs in a large mixing bowl. Beat at medium speed, 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally.
Alternately add the dry ingredients and the sour cream, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Beat well between each addition on low speed.
Spread 1/3 of the batter (about 2 cups) in the baking pan. Top with 1/3 of the filling. Repeat this pattern 2 more times, until all batter and filling have been used.
Bake at 325°F for 1 hour, until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 20 minutes, then turnout onto a serving plate and cool completely.
To prepare glaze: Mix all ingredients until smooth, then drizzle over cooled coffee cake.
