Old Fashioned Applesauce Cake!
The recipe for this delicious Applesauce Cake was given to me by a sweet lady named Barb. Her mother would make it for her birthday and sometimes for Thanksgiving and Christmas. This cake became a family tradition and I can see why because it is simply amazing. I love old recipes and I can definitely see this cake becoming a family favorite in my home. The cake is so moist and flavorful and eaten with a cup of coffee is just heavenly. Thank you Barb, for this outstanding recipe!
Applesauce Cake
Ingredients
2 1/2 cup applesauce
2 1/2 cup light brown sugar
1 cup shortening
2 eggs
3 cups flour
1 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp allspice
pinch salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup raisins
1 cup chopped dates
1 cup nuts (I used walnuts)
Instructions
Cream shortening and sugar together
In a separate bowl, add soda to applesauce - it will be foamy - then add to shortening and sugar mixture.
Sift together flour, salt, and spices, then add one cup at a time to the first mixture, blending well between each addition.
Dredge nuts, raisins, and dates lightly with a small amount of flour, and add to first mixture.
Add 2 unbeaten eggs last and continue to mix lightly until eggs are blended into the cake.
Pour into a greased, lightly floured tube pan.
Bake in a slow oven (325 - 350) for at least one hour. I baked mine at 340 for 1 1/2 hours.
Drizzle with a buttercream glaze.
Buttercream glaze
Mix half stick of melted butter, 1/4 cup milk, tbsp vanilla extract, and 2 to 3 cups of powdered sugar depending on how thick or thin you like the glaze.
Note: Tube pan is best. Bundt pan seems to stick.

Applesauce Snack Cake ~ Homemade Applesauce Cake Recipe ~ Back to School ~ Noreen's Kitchen
Today I want to share with you a quick and delicious applesauce snack cake that is easy to make and you just serve it right out of the pan you bake it in! This one doesn't even have any frosting, icing or glaze on it. We just enjoy this with a dusting of powdered sugar or nothing at all. This cake is moist and flavorful and can be made from pantry staples. This is a favorite from my childhood and we love it here!
This cake is super easy to make with ingredients you already have on hand. I know we try to keep applesauce in the pantry for eating as a side dish with meats or a go along with a lunch. This is a great way to rotate through your supply and keep it fresh. My cake is very basic but that does not mean it is lacking in flavor. It is moist and full of warm spices and tangy goodness that comes from the plump golden raisins that I love to use. You can choose to use regular raisins, dried cranberries or chopped dried apples if you like. Make this yours!
This is quick to throw together for an after school snack and is perfect for breakfast, or dessert. If you like to put a homemade dessert in your child's lunch a small piece of this is a great option. You can also add chopped nuts such as pecans or walnuts if you like. I prefer this one with just the raisins and save the nuts for my banana cake.
I hope that you will give this applesauce cake a try and I hope you love it!
Happy Eating!
