How to Make Gluten Free Apple Pecan Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch springform pan.
- In a large bowl, beat 3 large eggs until light and fluffy.
- Add 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce, 1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar, 1/4 cup maple syrup, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Beat well until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups gluten-free baking mix (ensure it's a cake mix, not all-purpose) and 1 teaspoon baking powder.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in 2 cups peeled and diced apples, 1/2 cup raisins, and 1 cup chopped pecans.
- Pour batter into the prepared springform 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 removing the sides of the springform pan. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack.
- While the cake cools, prepare the frosting: In a medium bowl, beat together 8 ounces cream cheese (softened), 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened), and 1/4 cup maple syrup until smooth and fluffy.
- Gradually add 3 cups powdered sugar, one cup at a time, beating until light and airy. Add more maple syrup, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed to reach desired consistency.
- Once the cake is completely cool, frost generously and enjoy!
