APPLESAUCE CARROT CAKE
I got this recipe from the newspaper, but the person who sent it in said it was from a Seneca applesauce jar. It's very good, and the applesauce in the icing makes a tasty variation.

APPLESAUCE CARROT CAKE (7" SPRING FORM PAN)
Originally this cake was made in a 9" spring form pan, but now that I have a 7" spring form pan I want to make it so I thought I'd half the recipe. Its an excellent carrot cake..probably the best I've ever tasted. It goes great with either Vanilla or Lemon Cream Cheese Icing.

VEGAN APPLESAUCE CARROT CAKE
This recipe is the best Vegan Carrot Cake recipe I've ever tasted. Its delicious and unique in that you pre-cook a few of the ingredients which I think accounts for the moistness of this cake. I've changed a few things to suit my own tastes. This cake is quite deep and very heavy. I like to frost it with a Vegan Cream Cheese Icing. The original recipe was found on recipe.com

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Grease a 9-inch spring form pan with spray oil.
- In a large sauce pan, simmer the raisins and grated carrots in the water over medium heat for 7 to 10 minutes.
- Remove and put in a large bowl.
- Add the oil, apple sauce, egg replacers, syrup, cinnamon, allspice, cloves, and salt. Stir the mixture well.
- In a separate bowl mix the flour, baking soda and walnuts together. Stir this dry mixture into the carrot raisin mixture.
- Don't over mix this.
- Pour into your spring form pan (you can use a 9-inch square pan if you wish) and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Use a wooden kabob stick to test this cake. A toothpick is not long enough.
- Once this is done cool on a metal rack and turn onto a plate.
Tips:
- Prepare Your Ingredients: Before starting, measure and gather all the necessary ingredients. Grate the carrots finely and ensure the applesauce is smooth and unsweetened.
- Use Fresh Ingredients: For the best flavor and texture, use fresh carrots and apples. Freshly grated carrots provide a more vibrant color and crisp texture, while homemade applesauce offers a richer flavor.
- Don't Overmix: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough and dense cake. Mix just until the ingredients are well combined. Overmixing can also cause the cake to rise too much and then fall, resulting in a dense and compact texture.
- Use a Springform Pan: A springform pan is essential for this recipe as it allows for easy removal of the cake without breaking it. Make sure to grease and flour the pan thoroughly to prevent the cake from sticking.
- Bake at the Right Temperature: The ideal baking temperature for this carrot cake is 350°F (175°C). A higher temperature can cause the cake to cook too quickly and become dry, while a lower temperature may not cook the cake through properly.
- Check for Doneness: To check if the cake is done, insert a toothpick or skewer into the center. If it comes out clean, the cake is ready. Overbaking can dry out the cake and make it crumbly.
- Let the Cake Cool Completely: Before frosting or serving the cake, let it cool completely in the pan. This will help the cake set properly and make it easier to handle.
Conclusion:
This delightful applesauce carrot cake is a delectable treat that combines the flavors of classic carrot cake with a hint of applesauce. Its moist and flavorful texture, complemented by a smooth and creamy frosting, makes it a perfect choice for any occasion. Whether you're a seasoned baker or just starting, this recipe provides detailed instructions to guide you through the process and achieve a delicious and visually appealing cake.
