Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Heavily grease a 10 inch bundt pan with cooking spray. This is incredibly important to ensure the cake comes out cleanly when removed from the pan.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk all purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg together until combined.

Step 3

In a large bowl, whisk granulated sugar, light brown sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, applesauce, apple cider, and vanilla extract together until smooth.

Step 4

Add dry ingredients to the large bowl of wet ingredients. Use a whisk to combine the batter until the dry ingredients disappear into the wet. Do not overmix, as this will lead to drier, denser cake.

Step 5

Transfer the batter to the prepared pan. Bake for 40-50 minutes or until the loaf is golden brown in color, a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs. Let the cake cool for 40 minutes in the pan before carefully flipping onto a wire cooling rack or plate to continue cooling.

Step 6

In a small bowl, combine cinnamon and sugar together.

Step 7

Brush melted butter on the warm loaf before immediately coating the cake with the cinnamon sugar mixture using your hands. Allow the cake to cool completely before serving.

Step 8

Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
