Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
3 cups peeled and chopped apples (like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Directions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan or a bundt pan. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the sour cream. Mix until just combined. Fold in the chopped apples and nuts, if using. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with a simple glaze if desired.
Enjoy a slice with coffee or tea, and savor the flavors of fall!
