Print Recipe

Ingredients

  • • 1 ½ cups cooking oil
  • • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • • 4 large eggs
  • • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • • 1 teaspoon salt
  • • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • • 3 ½ cups peeled and chopped Granny Smith apples (about 3-4 apples)
  • • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • For the Caramel Glaze:
  • • ¾ cup butter (1 ½ sticks)
  • • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • • ¼ cup whole milk
  • • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
  2. In a large bowl, beat together the oil, sugar, and eggs until the mixture is creamy.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add this to the wet ingredients, mixing well.
  4. Stir in the vanilla extract, followed by the apples and pecans.
  5. Pour the batter into a generously greased and floured tube pan (or two loaf pans as an alternative).
  6. Bake for about 1 hour at 325°F. Start checking for doneness around the 50-minute mark by inserting a toothpick into the center; if it comes out clean, the cake is ready. Adjust timing accordingly for loaf pans, also checking at 50 minutes.
  7. Melt butter in a small pan over low heat.
  8. Add brown sugar and milk, stirring to combine.
  9. Bring the mixture to a boil on low heat, then reduce to a simmer, stirring constantly.
  10. Let the glaze boil for 10 minutes while stirring continuously.
  11. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Allow the glaze to cool slightly.
  12. Pour the warm caramel glaze over the cake.
