Double Apple Loaf Cake

• 1/2 cup safflower oil
• 3/4 cup white sugar
• 1/4 cup maple syrup
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 1/4 cups unsweetened applesauce
• 1 cup flour
• 1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 apple, peeled, cored, and diced
• 1/2 cup raisins
• 1/2 cup walnuts, coarsely chopped

1. Preheat oven to 350u0b0F. Grease a loaf pan.
2. Toss the walnuts with 2 tablespoons of the sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of the cinnamon. Set aside.
3. In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, salt, baking powder, and raisins. Set aside.
4. In another bowl, beat the egg with the sugar, maple syrup, vanilla, applesauce, and vegetable oil until thick.
5. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet just until well blended. Stir in the apples and the nuts (making sure to scrape out all the sugar with the nuts).
6. Pour into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 1 hour, until a knife inserted into the middle comes out without any batter stuck on it. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then remove and let stand on a rack. If you can stand not to devour it, this cake keeps well for 5 days to a week.
