This recipe for Mini Apple Spice Bundt Cakes was originally published in January 2014. I’ve updated the post and included new photos.

Mini Apple Spice Bundt Cakes

These Mini Apple Spice Bundt Cakes are a delicious way to use some tasty seasonal apples. With Canadian Thanksgiving right around the corner, I wanted to share something that fit the autumn season. Baked fresh apple desserts are some of my favourite sweets to make during the fall. I love using warm and comforting spices, such as cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger to flavour my baked goods.

How to make Mini Apple Spice Bundt Cakes

A bonus feature about this easy apple spiced cake recipe is that it can be mixed by hand. I used Honeycrisp apples for this recipe, but you can use your favourite variety or even a combination of apples. You’ll want to peel, core and grate the apples before you get started with the rest of the recipe. Gather and combine your dry ingredients in a bowl, and the wet in another. Combine the wet and the dry ingredients and then fold in the grated apples. I used a mini bundt pan that makes six mini bundt cakes for this recipe but you can use a regular sized bundt pan.

The applesauce and grated apples used in this recipe make a tender and moist cake with a double dose of apple flavour. The cakes are delicious are their own or with a simple dusting of icing sugar. And if you really want to dress them up, I included a recipe for an easy cinnamon spiced glaze you can drizzle on the cakes. Looking for more mini bundt cake recipes? These Mini Almond and Matcha Bundt Cakes are super delicious. Enjoy!

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup whole wheat pastry flour
  • 1-1/2 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp. freshly grated nutmeg
  • 1-1/2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1/2 cup applesauce
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 1/3 cup light-tasting oil I used grapeseed oil
  • 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
  • 1-1/2 cups grated peeled apples packed

For the Glaze

  • 3 tbsp powdered sugar
  • 1 tbsp milk or cream add more if using cream and to achieve a thinner consistency
  • 1 pinch cinnamon
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions

  • Place a rack in the centre of your oven and preheat oven to 325ºF (160ºC).
  • In a large bowl, whisk together both flours, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
  • In a second bowl, whisk together the eggs, brown sugar, apple purée,  maple syrup, oil and vanilla.
  • Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
  • Add in the grated apples and stir until just mixed.
  • Spoon batter into the greased and floured mini bundt cake pan until approximately 2/3 full.
  • Bake until a cake tester inserted in the centre of the cakes comes out clean about 20-22 minutes.
  • Let the cakes cool in the pan on a rack for 10 minutes. Invert the cakes onto a wire rack and let cool completely.

For the Glaze

  • Combine, the powdered sugar, cinnamon, salt and milk or cream in a small bowl, whisk until smooth.
  • Drizzle over cakes.

Notes

If you prefer you can also make just one large cake by using a regular sized bundt pan. However you will have to adjust the baking time for the larger cake to approximately 45 minutes.

    While I have several full size bundt pans, I like your mini version with this recipe.

      Thanks so much Karen, I think they’re cute in mini format. Though I realize most people probably don’t have a mini Bundt pan at home so this recipe can be made in one large Bundt pan as well!
