Cup Sugar (200 gram)

Cup Butter (room temperature) (220 gram)

Applesauce (approx. 680 gram)

Tablespoons Cornstarch

Vanilla

Cinnamon powder

Preheat the oven to 350°F

In a mixer or food processor or bowl... combine the flour, baking powder, and sugar. Slowly add the butter 1 Tablespoon at a time. Pulse/mix/cut the butter into the dry ingredients. You want it to look like wet sand... and clump when you pinch it.

Divide this streusel mixture into ⅔ and ⅓. Press the ⅔ into the bottom and approximately 1 to 1½ inches up the side of a springform pan. You don&#39;t want it TOO thick in the corners, so press it in. Thickness should be about ¼ - ⅓ inch across bottom and sides.

Bake this for 15 minutes

While the shell is baking, combine the Applesauce, Cornstarch, Vanilla Extract, and Cinnamon in a medium bowl. Make sure not to leave any lumps of cinnamon or cornstarch.

Add the applesauce mixture to the pre-baked shell.

Crumble the rest of the streusel mixture over the applesauce evenly. Use your fist to squeeze it so you get bigger bits as well as just crumbs.

Bake 35 minutes.

Remove from oven and let cool on a rack.

An old fashioned, super soft, incredibly moist cake that&#39;s brimming with spices and has a tasty light apple flavor. It&#39;s much like carrot cake and absolutely delicious!

Applesauce Cake

(318 g) all-purpose flour

tsp baking powder

ginger

(150 g) granulated sugar

(490 g) unsweetened applesauce

(175 ml) vegetable oil (or canola oil)

cream cheese, (nearly at room temperature)

Tbsp (85 g) butter, (soft)

(360 g) powdered sugar

To make the applesauce cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 13 by 9-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.

In a large mixing bowl whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and allspice for 30 seconds. Make a well in the center and set aside.

To a separate large mixing bowl add granulated sugar, brown sugar, and eggs. Using an electric hand mixer beat on medium speed until fairly pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes.

Add applesauce, vegetable oil and 1 tsp vanilla extract to sugar mixture and blend with hand mixer until combined.

Pour applesauce mixture into well in flour mixture then gently fold and stir mixture just until there&#39;s no longer streaks or pockets of flour. Mixture will be lumpy and that&#39;s okay.

Pour mixture into prepared baking dish. Wiggle pan to level batter out even.

Bake in preheated oven until toothpick inserted into center comes out free of batter (a moist crumb or two is fine), about 30 to 40 minutes.

Let cake cool on a wire rack (to speed up cooling you can cool in the fridge).

To make the cream cheese frosting: Add cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar and vanilla to a large mixing bowl.

Using an electric hand mixer (with clean beater blades), blend mixture on low speed until combined. Then increase speed to high and whip for several minutes until light and fluffy.

If needed you can freeze the frosting in 3 minute increments, stirring between intervals, until it&#39;s firmed up some.

Frost cake with cream cheese frosting then cut into slices.

Made many times. Added walnuts,  chopped In ninja and raisins. My husband likes it that way. Also used coconut oil.

Best. Cake. EVER! I've made it for family gatherings and even a staff breakfast (because why not cake for breakfast?) and it always disappears! My Grammie made a similar cake when I was a little girl and this tastes very similar to hers. Thanks for sharing your recipe!

I’ve used this recipe at least 5 times now. It’s one of my favorites. I make this cake for my son who is lactose sensitive also with creamy Maple frosting or creamy Coconut frosting.

apple sauce

raisins or currants ((optional))

butter

half & half (maybe a bit more)

vanilla bean paste

almond extract

Heat the oven to 350˚F. Generously spray a 15x10-inch pan with baking spray. Rub with a paper towel to make sure all the surfaces are coated then spray again lightly. If using round cake pans, Spray with baking spray then line each pan with a round of parchment paper.

Combine the applesauce, oil, sugars, eggs and vanilla in a medium-size bowl. Whisk together until nice and smooth. Add the cinnamon, ginger, cloves, baking soda and salt and whisk until well incorporated.

Add the flour and whisk just until all of the flour is incorporated. Stir in the raisins, if using.

Bake the sheet pan cake for 18-22 minutes OR until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or the temperature in the center of the cake is 200-205˚F (93-96˚C). The round cakes will take 25-35 minutes. Use the same testing to determine doneness.

Allow the cake(s) to cool completely before icing. If using the round cake pans, allow the cakes to cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then invert onto a cooling rack to finish cooling.

For the cake:

Combine soft butter, half and half, vanilla bean paste and almond extract in a medium-size bowl and stir to combine. Add 2 cups of the powdered sugar and whisk together until nice and creamy.

Add the remaining 1½ cups powdered sugar and whisk until smooth. You want a nice spreadable consistency. If the icing seems too thin, add a bit more powdered sugar, if too thick, add more half and half, one teaspoon at a time.

Frost the cake(s) and enjoy!
