Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup apple cider
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Bundt Pan: Grease your bundt pan generously with butter or non-stick spray, then dust with a little flour to ensure the cake releases easily after baking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, sift together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt for even distribution of leavening agents and spices.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk apple cider, sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until the sugar starts to dissolve and the mixture is smooth.
  4. Bring Wet and Dry Together: Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing gently with a spatula until just combined, careful not to overmix to keep the cake tender and moist.
  5. Bake the Cake: Pour the batter into your prepared bundt pan, smoothing the top. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 45 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. Cool and Serve: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely to retain shape and prevent crumbling.

Notes

  • Use room temperature eggs and apple cider for even batter mixing.
  • Do not skip greasing and flouring the bundt pan to prevent sticking.
  • Check cake doneness starting at 45 minutes to avoid overbaking and dryness.
  • Add a touch of orange or lemon zest to brighten fall spices if desired.
  • Let the cake cool fully before slicing to allow flavors to settle and prevent crumbling.
