Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch bundt pan or a round cake pan, then set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt. Set the dry ingredients aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar using a hand or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time to the butter mixture, beating well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture in three additions, alternating with the apple cider. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined. Avoid overmixing.
Gently fold in the diced apples with a spatula until evenly distributed.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, invert it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cake has cooled, dust the top with confectioners' sugar before serving.
