# Ingredients You’ll Need:
→ Cake Base
01 -
2 cups unsweetened applesauce
02 -
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
03 -
1/2 cup vegetable oil
04 -
3 large eggs
05 -
2 cups all-purpose flour
06 -
1 teaspoon baking soda
07 -
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
08 -
1/2 teaspoon salt
09 -
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
# How to Make It:
01 -
Warm up your oven to 350°F (175°C) so it's ready for perfect baking.
02 -
Mix together the applesauce, sugar, and oil in a big bowl until they're completely combined.
03 -
Drop in the eggs one by one, making sure to beat well after each one goes in for the best cake texture.
04 -
In another bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt until everything's evenly spread out.
05 -
Slowly add the dry stuff to the wet stuff, stirring gently just until mixed so your cake stays nice and soft.
06 -
Mix in the vanilla extract so the flavor spreads through all the batter.
07 -
Dump the batter into a greased 9x13 inch pan and smooth the top so it cooks evenly.
08 -
Stick the pan in the middle of your hot oven. Let it cook for 30-35 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean when you poke the middle.
09 -
Wait for the cake to cool completely in the pan before you cut it up to serve.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
Want it sweeter? Try using 1 3/4 cups sugar instead. You can throw in some chopped nuts, raisins, or a bit of nutmeg for extra flavor. Keep leftover cake in an airtight container - it'll last 3 days on the counter or up to a week in the fridge.
