This apple walnut cake is delicious on it's own, but the caramel glaze makes it out of this world! A big hit with the family, and one that will be included in my Thanksgiving menu!

Apple Harvest Cake 



1 cup white sugar
1 cup brown sugar 
1 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup applesauce
2 tsps. vanilla extract
3 eggs
3 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. salt
1 or two Granny Smith apples peeled, cored, and chopped
1 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup butter
2 tsps. milk
1/2 cup brown sugar 

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour a 9 inch Bundt pan. In a large bowl, beat sugars, oil, applesauce, vanilla, and eggs with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Mix dry ingredients into wet ingredients just until blended. Fold in the apples and walnuts. Pour into prepared pan. Bake for 70 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool for twenty minutes in pan before inverting onto a wire rack. Make glaze by heating the butter, milk, and brown sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar, then remove from heat to cool slightly and to thicken. Drizzle over warm cake.
