Ready Time: 1 hr 50 mins


• preheat the oven to 350 degrees f (175 degrees c). grease a 9 inch bundt pan.
• in a large bowl, beat the sugar, oil, vanilla and eggs with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt; stir into the batter just until blended. fold in the apples and walnuts using a spoon. pour into the prepared pan.
• bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes in the preheated oven, until a toothpick inserted into the crown or the cake comes out clean. allow to cool for about 20 minutes then invert on to a wire rack.
• make the glaze by heating the butter, milk and brown sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat. bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar, then remove from the heat. drizzle over the warm cake. i like to place a sheet of aluminum foil under the cooling rack to catch the drips for easy clean up.
