1 1/2 c Applesauce
2 c Whole wheat pastry flour
1 ts Cinnamon
1/2 ts Nutmeg
1/4 ts Cloves
1 c Raisins
1 c Walnuts; coarsely chopped
1/2 c Butter
2/3 c Honey
2 ts Baking soda
Warm applesauce over low heat. Mix together the flour, spices, raisins, and walnuts in a mixing bowl. Melt the butter in a small pot and mix in the honey. Stir into the dry ingredients. Stir the baking soda into the hot applesauce. This will foam up in a spectacular fashion. Add the batter in the bowl and mix thoroughly. Pour the batter into a well buttered 9 inch square cake pan. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for about 40 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. May serve with vanilla ice cream or cool and frost with cream cheese frosting. —–
