Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 15.25 ounce box Yellow cake mix or Spice Cake Mix
  • 1 cup apple cider (NOT apple juice and NOT apple cider vinegar)
  • ½ cup apple sauce (we used cinnamon apple sauce, not chunky)
  • 3 large eggs (room temperature)
  • ¼ tsp cinnamon (more if you like it really cinnamony!)
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 tablespoons cinnamon (depending on how much cinnamon you prefer)
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • ¼ cup melted butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, apple cider, applesauce, eggs, cinnamon, brown sugar, and vanilla. Mix until well combined.
  3. Grease and flour a bundt pan. Pour the batter into the pan evenly and bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  4. Let the cake cool in the pan for 20 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  5. Mix cinnamon and sugar in a bowl. Brush melted butter over the cooled cake and coat with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
