Applesauce Cake

Applesauce Cake

This is a great recipe. It’s fast to make as well as moist and tasty. I decided to post it after a friend told me she had made a ton of applesauce but only one of her sons really liked it.  She wanted a recipe to use applesauce besides just eating it plain. I think her whole family will enjoy this cake. While I used butter in the recipe you could swap out the butter with coconut oil or shortening for a vegan dessert. This one is for you, Pat.
