Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Stir until well blended.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and eggs until smooth.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Fold in the diced apples and chopped nuts, ensuring they're evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Once cooled, slice and serve. Optional: Dust with powdered sugar or serve with a drizzle of caramel sauce for added sweetness.
