Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a bundt pan with butter or nonstick spray, dusting with flour.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg until no lumps remain.
  3. In another bowl, mix granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vegetable oil. Add eggs one at a time and then stir in vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, being careful not to over-mix, and add in diced apples.
  5. Pour the batter into the bundt pan and bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  6. Let the cake cool for about 10 minutes in the pan before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract for the glaze. Adjust milk for desired consistency.
  8. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake and serve at room temperature or warm.
