3 cups unbleached flour
1 teaspoon baking soda

Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees, then grease and flour a 10-inch tube or Bundt pan. Set aside.In a large bowl, combine the eggs, vanilla, oil, and sugars. Beat on medium speed until thick and foamy.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, spices, and salt. Add the apples and nuts and toss to coat.
