- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

Instructions
-
Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 10-inch bundt pan with butter or cooking spray. Lightly flour the pan to prevent sticking. -
Combine Dry Ingredients:
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg (if using). -
Combine Wet Ingredients:
In another bowl, beat the softened butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined. -
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. -
Add Fruit and Nuts:
Gently fold in the chopped apples (or fruit of choice) and nuts (if using). -
Pour and Bake:
Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan, smoothing it out evenly. Bake for 35-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. -
Cool:
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. -
Dust with Powdered Sugar:
Once cooled, dust with powdered sugar if desired, and serve.
Notes
- For a more indulgent treat, try adding a cream cheese glaze or frosting.
- You can swap out the apples for other fruits like berries or bananas for variety.
- This cake makes a great breakfast or dessert!
