Fall-inspired apple dessert with cinnamon, maple and a delicious glaze. A guaranteed hit!
Ingredients:
  • 1 box Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ Yellow Cake Mix
  • 3/4 cup apple cider
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 cup coarsely shredded peeled tart apples (2 medium)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons whole milk
  • Pecan halves, if desired
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F and generously spray a 12-cup fluted tube cake pan with baking spray that includes flour.
  • Combine cake mix, apple cider, melted butter, eggs, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a large bowl. Mix vigorously by hand until well combined, scraping the bowl occasionally. Fold in the apples and pour the batter into the pan.
  • Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from oven and let it rest for 20 minutes. Run a metal spatula around the edges of the pan to loosen the cake. Invert the pan onto a cooling rack placed over waxed paper and let the cake cool completely.
  • Whisk together 1 cup of sifted powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon in a small bowl. Add 2 tablespoons of pure maple syrup and 2 tablespoons of whole milk, and mix well. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled apple cider cake and sprinkle with pecan halves if desired.
  • Allow to cool at room temperature with a light covering.
