Our Test Kitchen staff relied on ground cloves, applesauce and honey to give this scrumptious spice cake its down-home goodness. The light airy treat is sprinkled with a little confectioners' sugar. Ingredients:
2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
sugar substitute equivalent to 3/4 cup sugar |
2-1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
2 eggs |
3/4 cup unsweetened applesauce |
1/4 cup canola oil |
1/4 cup honey |
1/4 cup finely chopped walnuts, toasted |
1/2 teaspoon confectioners' sugar |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. Whisk the egg, applesauce, oil and honey. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in walnuts.
2. Pour into a 9-in. square baking pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350° for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Yield: 12 servings.
