Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 box Betty Crocker Golden Cake Mix (375 g or equivalent)
- ½ tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
- ⅛ teaspoon ground allspice
- ¾ cup apple cider
- ½ cup applesauce
- 3 large eggs
- ½ tablespoon pure vanilla extract
Cinnamon Sugar Coating
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- ½ tablespoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F degrees. Grease and flour a 12-cup bundt cake pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk cake mix, brown sugar, ground cinnamon and ground all-spice.
- Add in apple cider, apple sauce, eggs and vanilla and beat with a hand mixer on medium speed for about 1 ½ minutes.
- Pour into prepared cake pan and bake for 35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to sit in the pan for about 30 minutes before flipping it upside down onto a wire rack. Pro tip: place your wire rack upside down on top of the Bundt cake pan and flip them both at the same time.
- Melt butter and brush evenly over the cake, ensuring all sides are covered.
- In a small bowl, mix sugar and cinnamon together and sprinkle all over the cake. Let the butter cool and sink into the cake for 1 minute before adding the cinnamon sugar mixture (note: you may want to spoon it on and rub it in with your hands, some areas may take more than others depending on how wet it is from the butter).
