    Current Image


    Cinnamon, nutmeg, and toasted walnuts make this loaf cake taste as great as it smells.

    Ingredients

    • 1/2 cup walnuts, chopped
    • 1 1/2 cups applesauce, unsweetened
    • 1 egg
    • 1 cup sugar
    • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (or cooking oil of choice)
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 2 cups all-purpose flour
    • 2 teaspoons baking soda
    • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
    • 1 cup raisins

    Directions

    1. Wash hands well with soap and warm water.
    2. Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease two 8x4x2 inch loaf pans.
    3. Toast walnuts in an ungreased skillet pan. Stir while heating on medium-low heat for 5-7 minutes. They are done when they are brown and smell nutty. Set aside to cool.
    4. Mix applesauce, egg, sugar, oil and vanilla in a large bowl.
    5. Mix flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and nutmeg together in a smaller bowl.
    6. Pour flour mixture into applesauce mixture.
    7. Stir in raisins and cooled toasted nuts.
    8. Pour half of the batter into each greased pan. Bake for 45-55 minutes.
    9. Remove cakes from the oven. Cool for 10 minutes. Remove from pans to finish cooling. For best taste, let cakes cool a few hours before serving.
