1/3 C shortening

1 C brown sugar

1 egg, beaten

1/2 tsp nutmeg

1 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp cloves

1/4 tsp salt

1 tsp soda

1 cup raisins, rehydrated and drained

1 Cup warm unsweetened applesauce

2 Cups flour

1 C chopped nuts (optional)

Directions

Cream shortening and sugar and add egg

Add soda to warm applesauce

Add sifted dry ingredients alternately with the applesauce

Since today's ovens are way more accurate, I would start hecking on this at 30 minutes maybe

Oh wow, I think this is the way my grandmother used to make her applesauce cake (I remember her heating the applesauce in a little saucepan and adding something to it when it was hot)...how great is that?! Thanks for sharing this, Pat2!
