What I Baked for Dessert :: One Bowl Apple Cake


My friend shared this recipe she found from a random person (Jean Dodd) on Facebook. I had some old-ish apples and a breakfast I needed to bring something to so I gave the recipe a go. It got the thumbs-up from my husband and I was asked for the recipe at the breakfast, so I'm guessing this was a successful recipe!

Ingredients:

  • 2 eggs
  • 1-1/4 cups sugar
  • 2 heaping teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup applesauce
  • 6 medium Gala, Fuji, or Honey Crisp apples
  • 2 cups flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, mix the eggs, sugar, cinnamon and applesauce. Peel and slice the apples and add to mixture in bowl (coating as you go to keep apples from turning brown.) Mix together the baking powder and flour and add to the ingredients in the bowl. Mix well (best with a fork) until all of the flour is absorbed by the wet ingredients. Pour mixture into a greased 9x13 pan, two 9″ round pans, or one 9” round pan and a 12 cup muffin pan. Bake for approximately 55 minutes (muffins will finish baking in about 45 minutes).

What I Ate for Dessert :: sweets from Baked & Wired


My husband was kind enough to bring home desserts from Baked & Wired for our 15th anniversary. He had the Honey Pecan Bar and I got the very rich Jolt Brownie.
