Yield: 12 servings
Cuisine: Jewish
Ingredients: 3 cups all-purpose flour; 1 teaspoon baking powder; 1/2 teaspoon baking soda; 1/2 teaspoon salt; 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon; 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg; 1 cup vegetable oil; 1 cup honey; 1 cup granulated sugar; 1/4 cup brown sugar; 3 eggs; 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; 1/4 cup orange juice; 3 cups peeled, cored, and chopped apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp); 1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan. Set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, honey, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and orange juice until smooth and creamy.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the chopped apples and walnuts, if using, until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice the Rosh Hashanah Honey Apple Cake into squares or rectangles and serve at room temperature. Enjoy the warm flavors of this delightful dessert with a cup of tea or coffee.
