Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray a bundt pan with non-stick cooking spray.
In a mixing bowl on low combine cake mix, pudding mix, applesauce, eggs, vanilla paste, oil and 3/4 cup of the tea for 30 seconds. Increase speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes.
Mix the shredded apple with flour, and fold into the cake batter.
Pour into the prepared pan, bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
Cool for a few minutes before inverting onto a plate. Drizzle with caramel sauce.
Combine powdered sugar with vanilla bean paste and the remaining tea a little at a time until the desired consistency is reached. I like mine on the thicker side.
Pour over cake. Serve immediately, or place in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Store leftovers in the fridge.
