Yum, Tearty, Apple Spice Cake!

Hi Tearty,

 

The spices from this cake will fill your house with the most amazing scent! Worth baking for that reason alone. The cake is dark, moist, and perfectly sweet. Serve this with a dusting of powder sugar to make it pretty, or serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla frozen dessert. It's so easy to make, and comes together so quickly. You can make muffins out of these too, but make sure to adjust the baking time.

 

Apple Spice Cake

Makes one 8-inch square cake.

Ingredients:

1-1/2 cups all purpose flour
3/4 cup sucanat (dried sugar cane juice - can substitute granulated sugar)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground or grated nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk (soy, rice, or nut)
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
scant 1/4 cup maple syrup
scant 1/2 cup canola oil
2 tablespoons cognac
1 teaspoon vanilla
1-1/2 cups chopped apples

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees, and line an 8-inch square baking dish with wax or parchment paper. Start by adding the apple cider vinegar to your 1 cup of soy milk.  Set the milk aside (it will sort of curdle a little, but that's fine).

In a large bowl, mix all the dry ingredients together. In another bowl mix all the wet ingredients together. Combine the wet and the dry, and then add the apples. If you wish you can add chopped toasted almonds, walnuts, or pecans.

Pour/spread the batter into the pan and bake 40 min, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
