Apple Cinnamon Bundt Cake

Bundt cake is a fun dessert to make because it takes little effort, but looks extra sophisticated. Of course, to make this classic dessert you need a quality bundt pan like this one.

The shredded apples in this recipe add so much moisture and depth to the cake and the added spices make it taste like a warm hug from your grandma.

Nothing says fall to me quite like apple cinnamon and who can resist a glazed homemade cake, right?

My favorite tool for shredding is this Rotary Grater. It shreds cheese, potatoes, zucchini, carrots, apples and more in a snap. Seriously, I use it all the time and it’s so much better than the classic handheld graters that like to shred your skin with the food. Eww.

  1. I have loved your helpful website for years. Question: How do you shred apples with the grater that you suggest? Their video only demonstrates using veggies. Do I peel, seed and core apples before using the grater? Approx. how many apples are needed to be grated for one cake? Thank you.
