This Honey Apple Bundt Cake with Honey Caramel Sauce is sweet and moist, studded with chunks of fresh apple and doused in a sticky honey caramel sauce! Perfect for Rosh Hashanah or any fall holiday.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 12- cup bundt pan {or spray liberally with non-stick cooking spray} and sprinkle bottom of pan with ¼ cup of chopped pecans.
In a medium bowl, beat sugar, oil and honey until combined. {Note: This batter is going to be thick so a hand mixer or stand mixer is the best bet here.} Add eggs one at a time, making sure each is well incorporated after each addition.
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Gradually add to wet mixture until just incorporated. The batter will be thick.
Fold in vanilla, remaining ¾ cup chopped pecans and chopped apples -- this part can be done by hand, but it'll take some muscle!
Spoon mixture evenly over pecans in pan. Bake at 350° for 65-75 minutes. Note: This cake browns very quickly due to the high sugar content. If you notice that it's looking like it might burn, loosely place a piece of foil on top to prevent over-browning.
Remove from oven and allow to cool for about 20-30 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to remove from pan.
When the cake is slightly cooled, pour ½ cup honey sauce over top. Serve the remaining honey sauce with each slice of cake. See blog post for Honey Caramel Sauce recipe.
