Instructions
- Grease and flour a bundt pan or use baking spray. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add softened butter, beating until crumbly. Incorporate eggs, vanilla, cinnamon, and milk; beat for 3-4 minutes until fluffy.
- In a separate bowl, combine diced apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Fold this mixture into the cake batter.

- To make the glaze, combine brown sugar, butter, and 4 tablespoons of milk in a small saucepan. Heat on medium until boiling, stirring constantly for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and add vanilla; cool for 15 minutes.
- Whisk together the cooled sugar mixture, powdered sugar, and remaining 2 tablespoons of milk in a mixing bowl until smooth. Pour over the cooled cake and let set for about 10 minutes before slicing.
