Packed with apples and spices, this chunky apple cake will hit the spot whether it's for breakfast, a snack, or dessert. It's especially decadent when drizzled with caramel or peanut butter.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare a 9x13 baking pan with spray oil.
Peel, core, and chop 6-8 Macintosh apples. You should have about 4 cups of chopped apples when finished. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the flours, sugar, cinnamon, cardamom, salt, and baking soda. Combine with a whisk and set aside.
In a small bowl, lightly beat the 2 eggs. Whisk in the canola oil and vanilla until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and stir until all the dry ingredients are fully incorporated.
Add the apples and chopped walnuts. Mix with your hand, or a large spoon, until well combined. Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan, and spread evenly in pan.
Bake for about 50 minutes at 350F, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out with a few moist crumbs. Allow to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
