- Preheat the oven to 180°C and prepare a cake tin.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, caster sugar, bicarbonate of soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice and salt.
- In a measuring jug, combine the oil, applesauce, vanilla and milk. Add the wet mixture to the dry and stir until combined. The dough will be quite stiff - add a little more milk if needed, however the apples will provide a lot of moisture during baking.
- Fold in the diced apples and nuts. Pour the batter into the tin and spread evenly. Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Whilst cooling, whisk together the cinnamon and sugar, and sprinkle on top.
