Ingredients

  • 3 cups gluten -free all-purpose flour blend (with xanthan gum)
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 large eggs , room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 3 cups Granny Smith apples, peeled and chopped (about 3 medium apples)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 12-cup Bundt pan with non-stick spray or butter and a dusting of gluten-free flour.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour blend, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and ground cinnamon until uniform.
  • In a separate large mixing bowl, beat the granulated sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract together using an electric mixer until the mixture is smooth and fully emulsified.
  • Slowly add the dry ingredient mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
  • Gently fold the chopped apples into the batter using a rubber spatula until they are evenly distributed throughout the thick batter.
  • Transfer the batter into the prepared Bundt pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  • Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer or toothpick inserted into the thickest part of the cake comes out clean.
  • Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes to let the structure set before inverting it onto a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
