Ingredients
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup packed dark brown sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1½ cups plain Greek yogurt
  • 3 cups + 1 tbsp. all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • 2 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1 tsp. cardamom
  • ½ tsp. nutmeg
  • 3 apples, peeled and chopped (I used Granny Smith)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease and flour a bundt pan. I have not used cooking spray with flour, I highly recommend using vegetable shortening to grease the pan and then shaking flour inside the pan to evenly coat it.
  2. Using a stand mixer or a hand mixer and a large bowl, cream together butter and sugars.
  3. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  4. Add vanilla extract and Greek yogurt and mix well.
  5. In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 cups flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cardamom, and nutmeg.
  6. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
  7. Mix chopped apples and remaining 1 tbsp. flour in a small bowl.
  8. Fold apples into batter.
  9. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 50-55 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let cool for 5 minutes in pan before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely
