Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
- 0.75 cups Vegetable oil
- 1 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups Brown sugar
- 3 pieces Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 3 cups Fresh apples (peeled, cored, and finely diced)
- 0.5 cups Chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan, or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the vegetable oil, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Mix until well blended and smooth.
Add the eggs, one at a time, to the wet mixture and beat well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the diced fresh apples and chopped nuts (if using), ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 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 in the pan for about 15 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve as is or with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
