Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour

  • 2 cups white sugar

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1 ¼ cups vegetable oil

  • 3 eggs, beaten

  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

  • 3 ½ cups apples, peeled and chopped

  • 1 cup chopped walnuts

  • 1 ¼ cups packed brown sugar

  • ½ cup butter

  • ⅓ cup milk

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking dish.

  2. Sift together flour, sugar, salt, and baking soda in a large bowl; make a well in the center. Add oil, eggs, and vanilla and mix until well combined; batter will be thick. Fold in apples and nuts. Spread batter into the prepared baking dish.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of cake comes out clean, 40 to 50 minutes.

  4. Combine brown sugar, butter, and milk in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Cook, stirring constantly, until glaze is slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes.

  5. Pour glaze over hot cake.
