This excellent moist cake recipe is good for snacks, packing in lunch boxes, and even breakfast on the run. Apple walnut bundt cake is one of our favorite recipes to make, especially in the fall. Bundt cakes are so easy to make. they don't need frosting, they don't need to be assembled, and they are basically foolproof.

As always, make sure that you measure all of the ingredients carefully and correctly when you bake. Flour is the most important ingredient to measure right. Then make sure you understand doneness tests and your baking will always be superb.
