- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1 cup sour cream, at room temperature
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 1/2 pounds (3 to 4) Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and cut into 1/2-inch dice
- 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
- 2 tablespoons turbinado sugar (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan. Sift the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, cloves and salt into a bowl. Set aside.
In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar on medium-high speed for 3 to 5 minutes, until light and fluffy. With the mixer on low speed, add the eggs, 1 at a time, then add the sour cream and vanilla. Mix until just blended.
Add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Fold in the apples and nuts. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle the turbinado sugar on top, if desired. Bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes to 1 hour and 20 minutes, until a cake tester comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then turn out onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
