Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9 x 13 inch pan; set aside.
In a medium bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.
In a large bowl, beat eggs until light and foamy. Add oil and vanilla; mix well. Stir in the flour mixture with a spoon; continue stirring the batter until the flour disappears. Add the apples and nuts; mix well.
Pour batter into prepared pan; bake 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Set cake on a wire rack to cool.
While the cake is still hot, prepare the glaze. Combine brown sugar, butter, vanilla, and heavy cream in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, until mixture comes to a gentle boil. Continue cooking 3 minutes.
Spoon hot glaze over the warm cake. Garnish with whole pecans or walnuts, if desired. Let the glazed cake cool completely before serving.
