Wonderful with a hot cup of coffee or tea. Just a touch of spice and the lemon is a nice touch to set off the applesauce. Hope you enjoy. Top with whipped cream or lemon sauce. Ingredients:
3 cups sifted all-purpose flour |
3/4 cup white sugar |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
3 egg yolks |
1 cup butter, softened |
1 lemon, zest grated |
1 3/4 cups applesauce |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). 2. Grease a 9x9-inch baking pan. 3. Mix flour, sugar, and salt together in a bowl. 4. Beat in egg yolks, butter, and lemon zest until dough is thoroughly mixed. 5. Mix applesauce, cinnamon, and cloves together in a small bowl. 6. Press half the dough into the prepared baking pan; spread applesauce mixture over dough in a layer. Top with remaining dough. 7. Bake in the preheated oven until cake is browned, 40 to 45 minutes. |
