Ingredients
  

  • 6 Baking Apples, such as Honeycrisp, Jonagold, etc Peeled and Chopped
  • 1 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
  • 2 cups Granulated Sugar, plus 5 tsp divided
  • 3 cups Gluten-free flour, plus 2 tbsp divided Can use regular all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 tsp Xanthan Gum If GF flour does not have
  • 2 tbsp Baking Powder
  • 1 cup Oil vegetable or canola
  • 4 Large eggs
  • 1/3 cup Orange juice
  • 2 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract

Instructions
 

  • Pre-Heat oven to 350°F
  • Liberally grease a bundt pan, making sure to get in all the crevices.
  • Peel and chop apples into bite size pieces and place in a large bowl.
  • Sprinkle the apples with the cinnamon, 5 tsp of sugar, and 2 tbsp flour; mix, and taste. If apples are a bit tart add a bit more sugar. Set aside.
  • To the bowl of a mixer, add the flour, 2 cups of sugar, and the baking powder; mix well.
  • In a separate bowl add the eggs, oil, orange juice, and vanilla extract. Mix well then add to flour mixture. Mix until just combined, the batter will be thick.
  • Stir in the chopped apples making sure they are thoroughly combined.
  • Pour the batter into the greased bundt pan and place the pan on top of a baking sheet to catch any spills.
  • Bake at 350°F for 1 - 1/2 hrs or until a tester inserted in center comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool for 5 min then flip bundt cake out onto a desired plate of choice and let it cool completely.
  • Sprinkle with powdered sugar or caramel drizzle if desired, just before serving.

Notes

  • To make cake using regular flour, just sub in all-purpose flour for gluten-free flour and omit the xanthan gum.
  • Sprinkle the powdered sugar on a completely cooled cake right before serving, so it doesn't melt into the cake.
  • Bundt pan used is 10 -15 cup capacity.
