| Bake up the flavor of Autumn in this delightful & easy cake! So moist, tender & packed with flavor! 4 Cups Flour 2 Cups Brown Sugar 3/4 Cup Of Butter cut into small pieces 2 TSP Cinnamon 1 Tsp Clove & 1 Tsp Ginger, & Dash of Nutmeg Optional Preheat oven to 350 degrees Grease & Flour a 9x13 pan Stir all the dry ingredients together in your large mixing bowl. Now add the butter a little at a time on low speed until you get fine crumbs. Remove 1&1/4 Cups for your crumb topping. Now add the following to the remaining crumbs. 2 Cups Boiling Water in a deep bowl add the following: 1 TBS Baking Soda & let it foam up, stir to be sure all is dissolved. Now stir in, 1 Cup Molasses, I used Grandma's but use the Molasses or table syrup you prefer. 1 Cup Applesauce 2 Tsp. Vanilla Stir to combine then beat on low speed into the remaining crumbs. Beat but a few lumps will be in the batter, not to worry. Pour the batter into your prepared pan. Now sprinkle all of the crumb mixture you set aside & divide evenly over the top. Sprinkle cinnamon over the crumbs if you like, I do & I did! Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 45 minutes or until cake tester comes out clean. Mine was perfect at 45 minutes but you do not want wet better, so bake until toothpick comes out clean. This is a very moist, flavorful cake, & taste like Fall & taste like More! ENJOY FOODIES! |
