So dense, so moist, so old-fashioned! Eat it plain, with hot applesauce poured over it, or with whipped cream.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
pinch of ground allspice
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/4 cup buttermilk
5 t unsalted butter, melted
1 large egg
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Directions:
1. Line the bottom of the slow cooker with a round of parchment paper. Coat the paper and the sides (1/3 of the way up) with nonstick cooking spray, or grease with butter.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, brown sugar, spices, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a small bowl, combine the applesauce, buttermilk, melted butter, and egg. Beat until smooth.
4. Add the applesauce mixture to the dry ingredients and beat until smooth and fluffy. Stir in the walnuts.
5. Spread the batter evenly in the cooker.
6. Cover and cook on HIGH until puffed and a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean, 2 1/4 to 2 1/2 hours.
7. Turn the cooker off, remove the lid, and let it stand for 30 minutes to cool.
8. To remove the cake, run a knife around the edge and lift it out with a large rubber spatula.
