Vegan Apple Walnut Cake


I had a huge craving for apple walnut cake today.  And the rain has been pouring down.  So what better day to heat up the house with the delicately spiced, amazing smell of baking apple walnut cake!

I tried to get a picture of the whole cake, but it disappeared too fast.  





Ingredients 

  • 4 medium red delicious apples, w/peel,diced
  • 1/3 cup coconut oil (melted)
  • 2/3 cup canola oil
  • 2 Tbsp ground flax seeds
  • 6 Tbsp water
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 1/4 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/2 cup walnuts, chopped



  1. In a small sauce pan over medium heat, mix flax and water.  Heat just until it forms a gelatinous mixture
  2. In large bowl, mix oils, flax mixture and  sugar; mix in apples and let stand for 15 minutes.
  3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  4. In small bowl mix together dry ingredients; set aside.
  5. When apple mixture has set, mix in vanilla
  6. Add dry ingredients and mix just until moistened; add walnuts.
  7. Pour into greased and floured Bundt Pan. Bake at 350 degrees for one hour. Let cool 10 minutes and remove from pan. Cool completely and serve. (Or cool mostly, slice some for yourself and enjoy with vegan margarine which will melt deliciously on your warm, yummy bread.)
