5. In a large bowl, cream applesauce and sugar then beat in egg white, then stir in vanilla.
6. Beat in the flour mixture alternately with the buttermilk.
7. Stir in banana mixture.
8. Pour batter into prepared pan, sprinkle rest of cinnamon on top, and bake in preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
9. Remove from oven and place directly into the freezer for 45 minutes. This will make the cake very moist.
(I ate 2 straight from the oven... the other 4 are in the freezer so I have yet to know if this trick works!)
