Ingredients

– 2 cups all-purpose flour

– ½ teaspoon allspice
– ¼ teaspoon salt

– 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)


Instructions

Creating the most amazing Applesauce Spice Cake is simple. Just follow these easy steps:

1. Preheat Your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and salt.

3. Combine Sugars: In a large bowl, beat the granulated sugar and brown sugar together until well combined.

4. Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the applesauce, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until fully incorporated.

5. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Stir until the batter is smooth and all dry flour is incorporated.

6. Add Nuts (Optional): If you’re using nuts, fold them into the batter at this point for an added crunch.

7. Pour Batter: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.

8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

9. Cool: Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 15-20 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

10. Serve or Frost: Once completely cool, you can serve it as is or frost it with cream cheese frosting, if desired.
