Instructions

For the Cream Cheese Filing:

  1. In a large bowl, add all ingredients and whisk to combine. Alternatively, mix with a hand mixer. Set aside.

For the Bundt Cake:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray your mini bundt pan, muffin tin or cake pan with non-stick baking spray.

  2. Using a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and apple pie spice. Set aside.
  3. In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk the egg, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until incorporated. Whisk in oil, applesauce, greek yogurt and vanilla extract and mix until fully combined.
  4. Add the flour mixture into the applesauce mixture and stir until evenly combined. Fold in diced apples.
  5. Pour the batter a third full into the prepared wells of the mini bundt pan. Dollop with a large spoonful (about 1-2 Tablespoons) of cream cheese filling smoothing the top lightly. Top remaining with cake batter and bake for about 20-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Meanwhile, make the streusel and the apple pie filling.

For the Streusel:

  1. In a small saucepan, melt butter on medium heat. Remove from heat and stir in the flour, sugar, cinnamon, and salt with a fork until small clumps form. Return to medium heat and stir constantly until streusel is cooked to a nice toasty brown. Remove from heat and allow to set and cool.

For the Apple Pie Filling:

  1. In a medium saucepan, place chopped apples, butter, brown sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and apple pie spice together. Cook over medium heat for about 3 to 5 minutes, until apples are tender. Stir occasionally. Allow mixture to cool.
