Applesauce Rum Raisin Cake Recipes

APPLESAUCE RUM-RAISIN CAKE

Steps:

• Place all the raisins in a small bowl with the rum and let sit overnight or at least 4 hours.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking pan.
• In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time; mix in applesauce.
• In another bowl, stir together the flours, cornstarch, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and cocoa. Gradually add flour into the batter, mixing until fully incorporated. Stir in the raisins, along with any rum that was not absorbed, and the walnuts. Turn batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake in preheated oven until a tester inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Cool on wire rack.

APPLESAUCE & RAISIN CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F and butter a 9x5" loaf pan and line bottom with parchment paper and butter paper. (This makes removing it from the pan so much easier).
• Beat butter and sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in egg.
• Stir baking soda into applesauce in a separate bowl.
• Mix dry ingredients together.
• Add dry ingredients in to butter mixture alternating with the applesauce. Mix just until blended well - don't overmix or the cake will be dense.
• Gently stir in raisins.
• Pour batter into pan and bake until top springs back when pressed - about 50 minutes (check at 45 minutes).
• Cool in pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes then turn out onto the rack to cool completely.
• Make glaze by mixing the lemon juice with the confectioner's sugar until smooth. Spoon glaze over the cooled cake and let set up before serving.
