applesauce spice cake

This applesauce cake is perfectly moist, scented with cinnamon and brown sugar. And you mix the entire dough in the cake pan! No mixing bowls required.

Easy Applesauce Cake

all-purpose flour

brown sugar

cinnamon

baking powder

baking soda

salt

olive oil

plain Greek yogurt

unsweetened applesauce (or homemade applesauce)

vanilla extract

Powdered sugar,

Preheat the oven to 350F. Grease an 8-inch square baking pan.

Put the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into the baking pan. Use a fork to thoroughly mix the ingredients together.

Use your hands to make a hole in the center of the dry ingredients. Into the hole, crack the egg and add the olive oil, yogurt, applesauce, and vanilla. Use a fork to mix the ingredients together until smooth and blended. Smooth the top of the batter with the side of a butter knife.

Bake until the cake is fairly firm when you press lightly at its center and a toothpick inserted in the middle has no wet batter sticking to it, 25 to 30 minutes.

Remove from the oven and leave on the counter to cool completely, 1 hour. Leave the cake in the pan. Dust with powdered sugar. Cut into pieces and use a small spatula to lift them from the pan.

light brown sugar,

An easy, family-friendly, scrumptiously moist applesauce spice cake with cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves. It is perfect for potlucks, family events, fall parties, and festivals.

Applesauce Cake Recipe

½ cups all purpose flour

ginger

nutmeg

cloves

applesauce

eggs room temperature

vegetable oil

sugar

walnuts

unsalted butter

cream cheese

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Grease and flour a 9&#215;13-inch baking dish

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, ground nutmeg, and ground cloves.

In a large bowl, combine the applesauce, eggs, vegetable oil, sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract.

Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture in several increments mixing just until combined. Fold in the walnuts and pecans if using. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.

Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.  Move the pan to a wire rack to fully cool.

Using a stand mixer with a paddle attachment or a hand-held electric mixer, beat together the butter, cream cheese, cinnamon, and vanilla until light, fluffy and smooth.  Turn the mixer to low and gradually add the powdered sugar, beating until well combined. Scrape down the bowl and beaters as needed.

Spread the frosting on the fully-cooled cake. This cake should be refrigerated because of the cream cheese frosting.

What a great combination, I want to try this really bad!

I'm drooling! This Applesauce Cake is everything I love!

I seriously love how easy this is to make! My family enjoyed it!

I always buy applesauce hoping my kids will eat it but they never do, but they do love it in cake! So good!!

I love any kind of apple dessert and this looks delicious.

This bread has a lovely texture and it is so easy to make. Thank you for the great recipe.

This cake is so delicious! I love the use of applesauce in this cake!

What a delicious apple cake. I love how you've used apple sauce to keep the cake moist, looking forward  to trying it very soon. Thanks for sharing.

What a lovely moist cake!  Loved the cinnamon cream cheese frosting!

Great recipe! Very easy to make a really delicious. Will definitely make it again.

This is the most amazing cake i ever made added some fudge on top before cooking because I didn't have any caramel sauce, it was so moist even the next couple of days. Thanks my favorite cake ever. Gonna add carrot's next time to try .

I made this recipe it is delicious. My whole family loved it.

I love how soft the applesauce keeps the cake. And cinnamon in the frosting is such a delicious idea!

This sounds pretty amazing. I make a cake with apple pieces and it's always popular. I bet this would go over well too.

I love subbing applesauce for oil in my cakes.  It makes the cake so light and fluffy I think plus it lightens it up!  This looks like a fabulous cake!

I made this cake about a month ago - fabulous!  I made it as written and wouldn’t change anything. It was moist, redolent with warming spices, moist,  and the cinnamon frosting provided  the perfect finish. I will make this cake regularly. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful recipe!

I don't typically comment, but have to say, this cake was perfect. I had homemade applesauce and apple butter and used a cup of each. I also reduced the sugar to 1/2 cup each of white and brown. It turned out soft, moist and fluffy. Thank you!

This was a success at Thanksgiving. Very sweet and the cake is silky. Goes great with coffee. I highly recommend!

This ultra-soft, super moist applesauce cake recipe is full of warm spices and has a wonderful, subtle apple flavor throughout. It&#39;s simple, comforting, and so, so easy to make.

Easy Applesauce Cake Recipe

cornstarch

1½ tsps baking powder

½ tsp baking soda

1½ tsps ground cinnamon

½ tsp ground ginger

¼ tsp ground cloves

eggs (room temperature)

unflavoured vegetable oil (I use canola oil)

milk (room temperature)

tsps vanilla extract/essence

Preheat the oven to 350℉ (180℃) conventional (see note 2 if using a convection oven). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch cake pan and line it lengthways with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides so it is easy to lift out later. Set aside.

In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ground ginger, ground cloves, and ground nutmeg. Using a whisk, mix until well combined. Set aside.

In a large bowl, combine the light brown sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, applesauce, milk, and vanilla. Using a whisk, mix until smooth and well combined.

Add the pre-sifted dry ingredients into the wet mixture and, using a spatula, gently fold until just combined. Be careful not to overmix and only fold until you no longer see any streaks of flour. The batter may look slightly lumpy, but that&#39;s perfectly fine as long as there aren&#39;t any large clumps.

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it into an even layer. Gently tap the pan on the counter to release any large air bubbles.

Bake for 25–27 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs attached.

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes. Run a thin knife along the edges without parchment, then carefully turn it out onto a wire rack and remove the parchment paper (see video for the easiest way to flip the cake). If desired, flip it back over so it is right side up to avoid wire rack marks on the surface. Cool completely before dusting with powdered sugar, slicing, and serving. Enjoy!
