How to Make Applesauce Cake
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup molasses, and 1 cup unsweetened applesauce until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once completely cool, dust generously with powdered sugar before serving.
