Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/4 cup coconut oil, (melted and cooled (See Note 1))
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup (93g) brown sugar (lightly packed (light brown sugar))
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 cup oat flour ((blend up regular oats))
1/4 cup chopped pecans, (optional)
1/3 cup raisins, (optional)
2 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese, (softened to room temperature)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 and 1/4 - 1 and 3/4 cups powdered sugar
Optional: additional chopped pecans to top

Steps:

  • PREP: Set out the cream cheese to warm to room temperature. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper -- otherwise, your cake will likely not come out easily. Greasing and flouring the pan isn't enough -- this batter is sticky and needs parchment paper. Foil will affect baking, so I don't recommend foil.
  • WET INGREDIENTS: In a large bowl, stir together the applesauce, coconut oil (measured when completely melted and then cooled back to room temperature-- See Note 1), large egg, vanilla extract, and brown sugar. Stir until completely combined and smooth.
  • DRY INGREDIENTS: Add the baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, allspice, and nutmeg (you can use a little less or more, depending on your preference). Add in the oat flour. (See Note 2.) Add in the chopped pecans and raisins if desired. Mix ingredients until completely combined and smooth.
  • BAKE: Transfer batter to the prepared 8x8-inch pan. Bake for 28-33 mins at 350 degrees F oven or until a fork when inserted comes out clean. Be careful not to over-bake, as it will make this cake less tender and less flavorful. Allow cake to cool completely before frosting.
  • FROST: Place softened cream cheese in a large bowl (give it ample time to set out so your frosting isn't chunky). Using a hand mixer, beat the cream cheese with the vanilla until smooth. Add in the salt and slowly add in the powdered sugar (beating in between additions) until smooth and creamy and to your desired consistency. If it is too thick, add in a little bit of milk. If you'd like a tangier or soft frosting, only add 1 and 1/4 cups powdered sugar. For a sweeter, thicker frosting, add closer to 1 and 3/4 cups.
  • DECORATE: Frost the completely cooled cake evenly with the frosting. If desired, top the frosting with the chopped pecans.
  • STORAGE: Store cake at room temperature, covered with plastic wrap. Applesauce Cake is best when used within 1-2 days. Freeze (un-frosted) pieces for up to 3 months; thaw at room temperature and then frost. Frosted cake doesn't freeze and thaw well.

APPLESAUCE CAKE

Applesauce makes this cake exceptionally moist. It's delicious on its own or served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. If you decide to use store-bought applesauce, choose one with a chunky texture.

QUICK HOMEMADE APPLESAUCE - NO SUGAR ADDED



Quick Homemade Applesauce - No Sugar Added image

A quick, easy homemade applesauce recipe that I served with potato latkes this year. It has no added sugar, which makes it a better option for diabetics and low-carb people and others who avoid cane sugar. But if you prefer a sweeter sauce, add 1/2 cup of sugar. I recommend using 1/2 sweet apples (I like Braeburn) and 1/2 tart apples (Granny Smith, for example). Don't leave out the salt, it's a necessary ingredient for a good applesauce!

Categories     Sauces

Time 35m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 lbs apples
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 pinch nutmeg
1 1/2 cups water
2 thin lemon slices
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Peel and core apples (I prefer to leave the skin on a few of them because I like the taste and texture). Cut apples into approximately 1 inch cubes.
  • Add all ingredients to pot, and turn heat on high. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 20 minutes or until the apples have softened significantly.
  • Stir frequently, making sure that the apples are not sticking to the bottom of the pot. Add more water if necessary. Remove lemon slices.
  • Mash with a potato masher or use a food mill for a smoother consistency. Serve warm or at room temperature.
