How to Make Apple Butterscotch Cake

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 13x9 inch baking pan.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup unsweetened applesauce, and ½ cup vegetable oil.
4. Add 2 cups peeled and diced apples to the wet ingredients and stir until well combined.
5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
6. Stir in 1 cup butterscotch chips.
7. Pour batter into the prepared 13x9 inch pan and spread evenly with a rubber spatula.
8. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. The top should be golden brown.
9. Let the cake cool completely in the pan before cutting and serving. Dust with powdered sugar, if desired.
