Steps:
- Preheat the oven:
- Twenty minutes or longer before toasting the walnuts, set an oven rack in the lower third of the oven. Set the oven at 350ºF/175ºC.
- Mise en place:
- Thirty minutes to 1 hour ahead, set the eggs on the counter at room temperature (65º to 75ºF/19º to 24ºC).
- TOAST AND CHOP THE WALNUTS: Spread the walnuts evenly on a cookie sheet and bake for 5 minutes. Turn the walnuts onto a clean dish town and roll and rub them around to loosen the skins. Discard any loose skins and let the nuts cool completely. Chop medium coarse.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
- Peel, core, and cut the apples into 1/8 to 1/4 inch dice.
- Make the batter:
- Into the bowl of a stand mixer, weigh or measure the eggs. Add the oil, granulated and brown sugars, and the vanilla. Attach the flat beater and beat on medium speed for 1 minute, until blended.
- Add the flour mixture and beat on low speed for 20 seconds, just until incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
- Detach the bowl from the stand and with a large spoon stir in the apples and walnuts. Spoon the batter into the prepared pan.
- Bake the cake:
- Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a wire cake tester inserted near the center comes out clean and the cake springs back when pressed lightly in the center.
- Cool the cake:
- Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack for 30 minutes. If using a straight sided pan, run a metal spatula between the sides of the pan and the cake. Invert the cake onto a wire rack that has been lightly coated with nonstick cooking spray and cool completely for about 1 1/2 hours.
- Drizzle Caramel Sauce and Glaze over the cake after unmolding.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, crisp apples. Granny Smith apples are a good choice because they hold their shape well when baked.
- To make sure the cake is evenly cooked, insert a toothpick into the center. If the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is done.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before glazing it. This will help the glaze set properly.
- If you don't have a lemon on hand, you can use lime juice or orange juice in the glaze instead.
- Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
This apple walnut cake with lemon glaze is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and flavorful, with a tender crumb and a sweet and tangy glaze. The walnuts add a nice crunch and the lemon glaze gives the cake a bright and refreshing flavor. This cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
