Vegan Bourbon Apple Pie Cake

Apples and Bourbon.
Bourbon and Apples...
It's a match made in Heaven.
After using bourbon in so many of my desserts of the holidays,
I figure, why stop now?
People love bourbon!
And they also love when I add bourbon into anything that I bake.
So, what could be better than combining my apple pie cake with my bourbon apple pie.
Boom!
Delicious!

Vegan Bourbon Apple Pie Cake
*Prepare the apple marinade and soak apples overnight

Apple Marinade:
3-5 Granny Smith apples or other tart apple
1 Tablespoon lemon juice
3-4 Tablespoons of bourbon
2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp. ground cloves

Cake:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 ½ tsp. baking soda
½ tsp. salt
½ tsp. baking powder
1 cup non-dairy milk (soy, rice, coconut, almond- whichever you prefer)
1/2 cup canola oil
1 tsp. vanilla
2 Tbs. apple cider vinegar

Directions:
Night Before:
1. Peel and slice apples.
2. Place apples in a medium bowl and add the marinade ingredients.
3. Cover bowl and place in the refrigerator overnight.

Next Day:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Grease and flour cake pan.  The more design on the pan, the better it turns out since this cake just has a glaze.
3. Combine all of the dry cake ingredients and mix well.
4. Add non-dairy milk, oil, vanilla, and apple cider vinegar into the dry ingredients.
5. Place a layer of marinated apples in the bottom of the pan. (This will be the top of the cake)

6. Pour a layer of cake batter over the top of the apples.
7.  Now alternate layering apples and batter until you've used it all up.
8. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until you insert a toothpick and it comes out clean.

Let it cool completely before adding a sugar glaze.
Share and enjoy with those you love!
