Method
- Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and generously grease a bundt pan with non-stick spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Whisk together until well combined.
- Add the vegetable oil, eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture. Mix with a whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
- Gently fold in the diced apples until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45–50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to rest in the pan for about 10 minutes before carefully inverting it onto a cooling rack.
- While the cake cools, toast the sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden and fragrant, about 3–5 minutes.
- Once the cake is completely cool, sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds over the top or down the center as a crunchy garnish before serving.
- Slice and enjoy your delicious One-Bowl Apple Bundt Cake!
