Super moist cake and good option for a "light" dessert - takes some time to put together and longer than the 30 minutes to cook in the oven. Topped with whipped cream

Ingredients
- Filling:
- 1 1/2 cups diced peeled Granny Smith or other tart apple
- 1/2 cup apple cider
- 1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
- 1 (3-inch) cinnamon stick
- Streusel:
- 1/2 cup walnuts
- 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Cake:
- Baking spray with flour
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1 large egg yolk
- 1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
- 9 ounces all-purpose flour (about 2 cups)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup fat-free milk
- 3/4 cup plain 2% reduced-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon powdered sugar
Preparation
- 1. Preheat oven to 350°.
- 2. To prepare filling, combine first 4 ingredients in a saucepan over medium-high heat; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium; simmer 20 minutes or until liquid almost evaporates and apple is tender, stirring occasionally. Cool to room temperature. Discard cinnamon stick.
- 3. To prepare streusel, combine walnuts and next 3 ingredients (through ground cinnamon) in a food processor. Pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal.
- 4. To prepare cake, coat a 12-cup bundt pan with baking spray. Place sugar and butter in a large bowl; beat with a mixer at medium speed until light and fluffy (about 3 minutes). Add eggs and egg yolk, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Scrape seeds from vanilla bean; add seeds to sugar mixture. Reserve bean for another use. Weigh or lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl, stirring well with a whisk. Combine milk and yogurt in a small bowl, stirring until smooth. Add flour mixture and milk mixture alternately to sugar mixture, beginning and ending with flour mixture; beat just until combined.
- 5. Spoon one-third of batter into prepared pan; sprinkle batter with half apple mixture and half walnut mixture. Repeat layers, ending with remaining third of batter; smooth with a spatula. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out with moist crumbs clinging. Cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes; remove cake from pan. Cool on a wire rack. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
