Applesauce Spice Cake
- Number of Servings: 8
Ingredients
1/2 cup molasses 1 cup applesauce 1 tsp cinnamon 1/2 tsp cloves 1 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp baking soda 1-3/4 cup flour (whole wheat pastry flour is good) 2 tsp ginger (optional)
Combine the molasses and applesauce in a large bowl. Combine remaining ingredients and stir into the liquid. (If the batter seems very dry, add a little more applesauce or a little water.) Bake in a nonstick 8 x 8-inch baking pan or one sprayed with a non-stick spray, in a 350° F (175°C) oven, for 30 to 45 minutes, or until it tests done.
The optional ginger makes an acceptable gingerbread. You can also leave out the ginger and add 3 or 4 tablespoons of cocoa to make a tasty but not very sweet or rich chocolate cake.
