I love cake, especially with fruit, so I was very excited to try this updated recipe for fresh apple cake. This is the healthiest apple cake recipe I have ever seen and just as easy as using a boxed mix. (I bought an entire 1/2 bushel of apples from a local orchard in December, and I am still trying to come up with ways to use them all!)
This cake recipe has no white flour, just one egg, no oil and fresh fruit. Another plus? Easy to make! Simple, yummy and healthy. It is so moist from the applesauce that no frosting or ice cream is needed. Makes 8 servings.
Sprinkle diced apples with sugar. In a small bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. In another bowl, beat the egg. Mix in the applesauce and vanilla. Stir the flour mixture into the egg mixture, until well mixed. Add apples. (The batter will be much thicker than traditional cakes, but this is okay! )

That cake was pretty good. My only regret was I only had one slice. :(
