Ingredients
Wet
- 4 large eggs
- ¾ cup light brown sugar
- ¾ cup white sugar
- 1 cup apple sauce
- ⅔ cup vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1 cup grated apple about 1 large apple
Dry
- 2 cups gluten free all purpose flour
- 1 ½ cups blanched almond flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 ¾ teaspoons cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon cloves
- ¼ tsp nutmeg
Glaze
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons non-dairy milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- Pinch of cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Generously grease and flour a bundt pan. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat together all wet ingredients except for the apple.
- Beat in the dry ingredients, making sure to spoon and level the flour, don't scoop right from the bag.
- Once well combined, fold in the grated apple until well combined.
- Transfer to your prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes (I usually do 48) or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Let cool in the pan for just 15 minutes, then flip onto a cake stand, tapping the bottom lightly as needed to help it slide out more easily.
- Let cool completely.
- Whisk together all ingredients for the glaze, then pour on top. Slice and enjoy!
Notes
I made this into 1 regular bundt cake, but you can also use two 8 or 9 inch round cake pans instead. Decrease the bake time by about 10 minutes, but keep an eye on it and check for doneness around 35 minutes.
