Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup (1 1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1 1/2 cup firmly packed light-brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cup raisins
1 1/2 cup currants
1 1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
2 2/3 cups cake flour
3/4 teaspoon coarse salt
3/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

3/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 1/2 cup thick applesauce, warmed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter and flour a 12-cup nonstick Bundt pan. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy; add eggs and beat well.
  • Combine the raisins, currants, and walnuts in a small bowl. Sprinkle with a tablespoon of flour and toss to coat to prevent sinking during baking. Whisk remaining flour with other dry ingredients in a medium bowl. Beat flour mixture into butter mixture alternating with applesauce. Reduce to low speed and beat in raisins, currants, and nuts. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean, about 60 minutes.

1/2 cup butter ((room temperature))
1 cup sugar
1 large egg
1 cup raisins
1 cup black walnuts ((or English walnuts))
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cloves
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 1/2 cups unsweetened applesauce

Steps:

  • Grease a 10 cup bundt cake pan generously with shortening, then dust with flour (or use our perfect cake release). Preheat the oven to 350º Fahrenheit.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer (or using a hand mixer), cream the butter and sugar until well blended and smooth, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • Add the egg. Mix until blended.
  • Mix in the raisins and walnuts.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, soda, salt, cloves , nutmeg and cinnamon.
  • Add the applesauce and flour to the butter mixture alternately, mixing well between each addition. Batter will be thick.
  • Add the batter to the pan by large spoonfuls and smooth out evenly.
  • Bake for 45 minutes or until the top of the cake springs back when you touch it. The exact time will depend on the shape of your bundt cake pan. If it makes a thicker cake, it could take up to an hour to bake. Ours took 45 minutes in the Autumn Wreath Bundt Pan.
  • Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then turn out on a cake plate to cool completely.
  • Dust with powdered sugar if desired.

SPICED APPLESAUCE CAKE



Spiced Applesauce Cake image

Provided by Patrick and Gina Neely : Food Network

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Nonstick spray
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon table salt
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
2 sticks unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 cups light brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 cups no-sugar-added applesauce
Powdered sugar, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Adjust the racks to the center of the oven. Spray a Bundt pan with nonstick spray.
  • Whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, ginger, cloves and nutmeg in a large bowl. Beat together the butter and brown sugar in a separate bowl with an electric hand-held mixer until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, until incorporated. Alternate adding the flour mixture and the applesauce, ending with the flour, being careful not to over-mix. Transfer the batter to the prepared Bundt pan and bake until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean, 55 minutes. Cool completely before inverting. Sprinkle with powdered sugar if using.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, flavorful apples. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn are all good choices.
  • Peel and core the apples before cooking them. This will help the applesauce to have a smooth texture.
  • Cook the applesauce until it is thick and bubbly. This will help the cake to be moist and flavorful.
  • Let the applesauce cool completely before using it in the cake batter. This will help the cake to rise properly.
  • Use a bundt pan that has been greased and floured. This will help the cake to come out of the pan easily.
  • Bake the cake according to the recipe instructions. The cake is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool completely before glazing it. This will help the glaze to set properly.

Conclusion:

This Applesauce Spice Bundt Cake is a delicious and festive cake that is perfect for fall. The cake is moist and flavorful, with a tender crumb and a sweet, tangy glaze. It is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
