Inspired by a fall favorite, these bundts have all the trimmings! A java infused cake is speckled with spiced apples, then cloaked in white chocolate, grated chocolate and a caramel drizzle.

I have been going crazy this season with apples. My creativity was put on hold due to a cold but now that I’m better, I’m feeling inspired all over again!

So, the last time we spoke I mentioned caramel and apples – a match made in heaven. Alas, I got my wish and so did you.

#BundtBakers have joined forces to bake our favorite beverage-inspired bundts, and our lovely hostess, Laura, is back again to lead the pack.

It was a tough call this month because there are so many drinks out there that would have been perfect for this challenge.

Ultimately, I decided to keep to the autumn theme because you know, fall is just another word for latte season 😉

I started with a white cake mix base and kept it relatively low-fat by adding apple sauce in place of butter and oil (the more apples, the merrier) and then added a cup of good, really strong coffee for a rich, golden batter. I folded in spiced apples, which also added to the beautiful hue.

Good thing these cakes are low-fat because when it came to toppings, I went all out. I covered these gems up in white chocolate, then dusted with chocolate shavings, and if that weren’t enough, I went to town with the caramel sauce.

The result was a super moist cake, bits of warmly spiced apples, a hint of coffee and a whole lot of yum!

Ingredients

Spiced Apples:

3 apples - peeled, cored and chopped
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoons Autumn Spice Mix
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 cup brown sugar

Java Cake:

1 box white cake mix
1 cup apple sauce
2 eggs
1 cup strong brewed coffee, room temperature
White chocolate melting chips
Caramel sauce
Shaved chocolate, for garnish

Instructions

Spiced Apples:

In a small bowl, toss together apples, vanilla, spice mix, cornstarch and sugar. Set aside.

Java Cake:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and butter a bundt mold or mini bundt pan.
In a large bowl whisk together apple sauce and eggs until smooth and creamy. Add coffee and whisk again. Gradually add cake mix until a thick but smooth batter forms.
Fold in spiced apples to the cake batter. Pour the batter into each bundt mold. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden and cake tester comes out clean.
Let cool completely on a wire rack, then gently turn each cake over onto a plate.
Melt down melting chocolates and drizzle over each cake. Spread the chocolate evening, then sprinkle with shaved chocolate and a generous drizzle of caramel.

  Hi Fabby, Thank you so much for your kind words! I am so happy to hear you want to try our bundt. Yes, you can definitely make this in a single bundt pan, just be sure to adjust the bake time accordingly. If you have any other questions, feel free to let me know. xo, Tammy
