How to Make Apple Spice Cake
From pumpkin spice to cinnamon sugar, fall is full of decadent flavors that warm you from the inside-out, despite the cooling weather. One of our favorite recipes to make when autumn rolls around is this rustic Apple Spice Cake with Brown Sugar Frosting, which makes the most of fall’s best flavors like fresh apple, pumpkin pie spice and toasted walnuts.
This layered cake is so delicious, it inspired our friends over at Bustle to develop a recipe for hand-held, air-fried apple pies with a brown sugar glaze. Head on over to their YouTube channel to learn how to make ‘em! And we want to see what you’re cooking up, so be sure to tag Taste Of Home and Bustle in your finished products.

------------------------------
FOR THE CAKE
- 1 1/4 cups vegetable oil
- 2 cups sugar
- 4 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 3 cups peeled and chopped apples
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 cup pecans
FOR THE FROSTING
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- 2 tablespoons calvados or apple brandy (optional)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 1/2 tp 2 cups powdered sugar
FOR THE CAKE
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Evenly spread pecans on a small baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven until toasted and fragrant, 6-10 minutes. Remove from oven, chop and set aside to cool.
Peel apples, remove the core and chop into 1/4- to 1/2-inch pieces. Pour the lemon juice over the apples to prevent browning and to brighten the flavor.
In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine the oil, sugar, and eggs. Beat until well combined, 2-4 minutes.
Add vanilla, mixing until incorporated.
Add the flours, salt, baking powder, and cinnamon. Mix on low speed until the dry ingredients are just incorporated and only a few dry streaks remain.
Fold the prepared apples and cooled pecans into the batter. Set aside 2 tablespoons of nuts to garnish the top if desired.
Spray a ten-inch tube pan (angel food cake pan) with nonstick baking spray. Pour batter into prepared pan and spread to an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven until the cake springs back and an inserted skewer comes out clean with only a few crumbs attached, 75-90 minutes.
Remove from oven, let cool in the pan for 1 hour. Turn out onto cake plate and make the frosting.
FOR THE FROSTING
Combine sugar, butter, and milk. Stir to dissolve sugar and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Boil for 2 minutes and remove from heat.
Add powdered sugar, vanilla, and calvados (if using). Whisk until smooth and adjust with more milk or sugar to achieve a thin frosting consistency.
Immediately drizzle frosting over the cooled cake. Sprinkle with reserved pecans and enjoy!
Apple Spice Cake: This Cake is On Fire! Literally.
This Apple Spice Cake Recipe has a surprise twist at the ending. It is amazing! This family recipe is full of fresh apple, spices including cinnamon and nutmeg. I use nuts (walnuts this time, but I have also used pecans or a nut mixture). You could omit the nuts if you choose too, I never have because I like them, but I am sure it would turn out fine. You can get the recipe here:
