    Chunky apple spice cake, filled with cream cheese, topped with caramel sauce and sprinkled with pecan. This warmly spiced apple bundt cake  with caramel sauce is outrageously rich.

    This cake is chuck full of fall flavors. The spiced cake was inspired by my recipe of Middle Eastern spiced tea, loaded with apples with a ribbon of cream cheese in the middle and drizzled in silky caramel sauce. A divine cake that will fill you with a sweet and warm sensation to welcome Fall.

    Yes, you've read it right FALL, you might wonder why I am putting apple recipe now while we are ready to welcome Spring not Fall. Well, a significant numbers of my readers live in the Southern Hemisphere and they are on the verge of Fall. Yes, I am finally sharing a “seasonal” recipe just for the other hemisphere. I’m thinking of you guys!

    Ok enough talking and let's jump right in.

    A bowl with eggs and mixture

    Begin by preparing the cream cheese filling by beating cream cheese, egg, flour and sugar.

    Until creamy and smooth.

    Then we'll start making the cake by mixing sugars and oil. I love oil based cakes, they are light and moist.

    Mix flour, spices and all the dry ingredients well.

    And as usual mix dry and wet ingredients until everything is well combined.

    Pour half the batter into a bundt cake, then spoon cream cheese filling over, leaving some space between the filling and the border of the pan all around.

    Pop in the oven, bake and drizzle with either store bought or homemade caramel sauce for more heavenly taste. Sprinkle with some nuts, pecan goes very well with this recipe.

    You can of course serve it plain without the caramel sauce, but seriously this worths the extra calories. If you are going to eat desserts, eat it right :). And may be hop on the treadmill afterwards hehehe.

    Personally, I would love having a slice weather it is spring, Fall or whatever season of the year. It is lovely, delicious by all means. Make this cake, make it because it is Fall, make it because it is Spring, make it just because :).

    I hope you'll like making this loaded cake... until next time.. have a great Fall/Spring.

      I haven't made an apple cake since we sold our orchard in New England and moved to Florida. Yes, even though this might be considered a fall dessert, I'd gladly share a slice of this cake with you anytime.

      Lucky thing we can get decent apples any time of the year. So even though our peak crop is over, we can still make this. Love apple desserts, and this looks SO flavorful. Thanks!
