• 3 medium Apples

• ¹⁄₂ teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Unsalted butter
• 1.5 cup Granulated sugar
• ¹⁄₂ cup Brown sugar

• 2 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt cake pan.
2. Peel, core, and chop the apples into small pieces.
3. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.

5. Remove the browned butter from heat and stir in the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
6. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.
7. Fold in the chopped apples.
8. Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and smooth the top.
9. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
10. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
11. In a small saucepan, scrape the seeds from the vanilla bean and add them to the powdered sugar. Stir in enough water to make a glaze consistency.
12. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake.
13. Let the glaze set for 20 minutes before serving.
14. Enjoy!
