Applesauce Spice Cake Recipe

• 1/2 c. Molasses
• 1 c. Applesauce
• 1 tsp Cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp Cloves
• 1 tsp Baking pwdr
• 1/2 tsp Baking soda
• 1 3/4 c. Flour, (I use whole wheat pastry flour)
• 2 tsp Ginger, (optional)

1. Combine the molasses and applesauce in a large bowl.
2. Combine remaining ingredients and stir into the liquid.
3. (If the batter seems very dry, add in a little more applesauce or possibly a little water.)
4. Bake in a nonstick or possibly pan-sprayed 8*8-inch baking pan, in a 350 degree oven, for 30-45 min or possibly till it tests done.
5. The optional ginger makes an acceptable gingerbread.
6. I have also had success leaving out the ginger and adding 3 or possibly 4 Tbsp.
7. of cocoa
8. (I guess you could use carob) to make a tasty but not very sweet or possibly rich chocolate cake.
9. If you use cocoa you might need to add in extra sweetening, but which depends on your taste.
