#BundtBakers: Apple Juice Spice Cake with Caramel Apple Glaze

This month in #BundtBakers we were to use a beverage to inspire us. I also needed to take a little something to a fall party and so this lovely cake was born. It was inspired by an Orange Juice Cake I saw on Pinterest. It was an easy spin to use apple juice instead!

The house smells amazing with the spice cake and the apple. I used my convection oven and the cake rose and browned beautifully!
