Get ready to welcome in the fall season with this delicious Apple Cider Cake. This easy cake gets a blast of flavor from apples, cider, and spices. Plus, the creamy caramel apple cider frosting makes it totally irresistible.

As soon as I see apple cider in the stores, I have to buy a jug. Apple cider is just one of those things that says fall to me. Even when the weather outside still says it's summer.
Apple cider is delicious to drink, but it is so much fun to bake with. We love making these apple cider donuts and this apple cider bread every fall.
Recently, I saw an apple cider cake mix and apple cider frosting at Target. I decided to change up my apple cake from a cake mix using apple cider to recreate my own version.
