Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup brown sugar
• 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda

• 0.5 cup vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup sour cream
• 3 cups apples, peeled, cored, and chopped
• 0.5 cup walnuts, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, beat the eggs, then add the vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and sour cream. Mix well until the ingredients are fully incorporated.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently to combine the batter. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Fold in the chopped apples and walnuts, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Step 8

Allow the apple cake to cool in the pan on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy it warm or at room temperature.
