How to Make Applesauce Spice Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 cup unsweetened applesauce, ¾ cup packed light brown sugar, and ½ cup vegetable oil. Mix well.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, ½ teaspoon ground cloves, ¼ teaspoon ground allspice, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Add 1 cup raisins and ½ cup chopped walnuts (or pecans) to the dry ingredients; mix gently to combine.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 40-45 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 cooled, frost with Seven Minute Frosting (optional).
