Apple Bundt Cake

There's something about a good bundt cake that makes me smile. I'm not sure why, but I think they're kind of cute-especially if you make them in the little bundt cake pans. Seriously-who could resist that?! (Not me!)

2 cups apples-peeled, cored, and diced
1 Tbls sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
3 cups flour
3 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2 cups sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup orange juice
2 1/2 tsp vanilla
4 eggs
1 cup walnuts, chopped
1/4 cup powdered sugar (for dusting)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 10" bundt pan. In a medium bowl, combine diced apples, 1 Tbls sugar, and 1 tsp cinnamon. Set aside.

Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl, combine 2 cups sugar, oil, orange juice, vanilla, and eggs. Beat at high speed until smooth. Stir in flour mixture. Fold in chopped walnuts.

Poor 1/3 of the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle with 1/2 of the apple mixture. Alternate layers of batter and filling, ending with batter. Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until the top springs back with lightly touched. Cool in pan for 10 minutes before turning onto a wire rack to cool completely. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
