Applesauce Cake Recipe

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, take applesauce, oil and sugar.

Step 2

With a wired whisk, stir this mixture so well that the oil is incorporated evenly.

Step 3

Now add the apple cider vinegar or regular vinegar or lemon juice to this wet mixture.

Step 4

Preheat the oven for 15 minutes at 180 degrees C/356 degrees F before you begin baking the cake.

Step 5

Sieve the dry ingredients - all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder and a pinch of salt directly in the bowl having the wet ingredients.

Step 6

Add vanilla powder or scraped vanilla bean or vanilla extract.

Step 7

Fold the dry ingredients in the wet ingredients lightly. Don't over do.

Step 8

The batter should feel light.

Step 9

Pour the batter in the prepared pan.

Step 10

Bake at 180 degrees C/356 degrees F in a preheated oven for 35 to 40 mins.

Once baked and a toothpick inserted comes out clean, remove the cake from the pan after it cools a bit and then place on a wired rack or tray for the sponge cake to cool down.

Step 12

Each oven has a different baking time, so keep this in mind. The cake can take less or more time in your oven to bake.

Step 13

Slice and serve this eggless cake with milk, tea or coffee.
