Salted caramel apple cake

adapted from Smitten Kitchen

Ingredients: 
five apples, peeled/cored/diced. I used a large Granny Smith, two Golden Delicious, and two McIntosh
1 Tbsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. freshly ground nutmeg (I love nutmeg!)
5 Tbsp. sugar

2 3/4 c. flour, sifted
1 Tbsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1 c. vegetable oil
1 c. sugar
1 c. salted caramel, melted (recipe for that soon. I'm working backwards, I know. Sorry.)
1/4 c. orange juice
2 1/2 tsp vanilla
4 eggs

- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a tube/bundt pan. Toss apple chunks with cinnamon and sugar. Set aside.
- Mix flour, baking powder, and salt. In separate bowl, whisk together sugar, orange juice, oil, vanilla and caramel. Mix wet ingredients into dry ingredients, then add eggs one at a time.
- Pour half of batter into pan. Scatter half of the apples into batter. Pour the remaining batter over the apples and sprinkle remaining apples on top. Bake for 1 1/2 hours, or until tester comes out clean. No, really. It takes that long. Your house will smell amazing. AMAZING.
