How to Make Easy Apple Cake
Heat oven to 350°. Peel and chop your apples and set to the side.
Spray a bundt pan with non-stick baking spray.
In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, pie spice, cinnamon, and salt.
Add sugar and egg whites to bowl of a stand mixer with a whisk attached and beat on high until soft peaks form.
Reduce the mixer to low speed, add in the apples, applesauce, and vanilla.
Mix well to combine.
Pour the batter into the bundt pan.
Tap the pan on the counter to guarantee it is evenly spread.
Bake for 55 minutes.
Insert a toothpick in the center to verify the toothpick comes out clean.
Place the bundt pan on a cooling rack for 10 minutes.
Remove from pan and cool.
Sprinkle with powdered sugar. This dusting wand is my new favorite discovery.

This looks delicious. I have a bake sale coming up and was thinking making individual Bundt cakes. Any idea how long to bake them?
