How to Make Low Fat Orange Raisin Nut Snack Cake
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x9 inch square baking pan.
- Cut one medium orange into small pieces (about 1 cup).
- In a blender, combine the orange pieces, 1/2 cup fresh orange juice, 1 large egg, and 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce. Blend until completely smooth.
- Add 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar (or substitute with a sugar alternative like stevia), 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt to the blender. Blend until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 1/2 cup raisins and 1/2 cup chopped nuts (walnuts, pecans, or your favorite) by hand until evenly distributed. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Start checking for doneness at 30 minutes.
- Let the cake cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares. Enjoy!
