My new recipe for this moist and delicious vegan apple Bundt cake with brown sugar glaze turned out so yummy that I not only had a piece for my dinner but also had a piece for my dessert last night….true story. We all have been dealing with this pandemic in so many different ways but also the same. I’ve been napping more than usual these days and when I woke up from one yesterday I was in the mood to bake. I came up with this vegan apple Bundt cake recipe a while ago and the perfect opportunity came up to make it. Since I had a bunch of apples that really needed to be used in a recipe.
As the timer ticks, cake bakes!
After my precious vegan apple Bundt cake was baking for a while, Patrick came home from doing a quick visit to the office to get mail. Plus he told me that his car broke down and I need to bring him back to the office to help him jump his battery. Furthermore he had walked home since he forgot his phone. I had mentioned to him that we will go as soon as the cake was done. Because it had 30 minutes left and he said let’s go now, we have time….um ok, did you hear the word CAKE!
As I drove him to the office like a bat out of hell, I couldn’t stop thinking about the cake. Who cares about his car, right? I told him if that cake burns that he was going to get cut. When we arrived back home after the car shenanigans, luckily there was 5 minutes to spare on the timer, thank God my cake survived. Since I had made this recipe so late into the evening, I didn’t make dinner so it seemed like a no brainer to have a slice of my delicious vegan apple Bundt cake with brown sugar glaze as my dinner, right? …and it was so good, I accidentally had another slice for dessert.

It needs longer than 15 minutes to cool before turning over…… I waited 20 minutes and that was not long enough! My cake broke apart in the middle. 🙁
Smells and tastes great though!

I’m so sorry that happened to you, I’ll adjust the recipe to indicate a 30 minute cool down, I’m glad you at least liked the flavor. Happy Holidays and thank you for visiting my site
