This sounds like it will be very moist. I can't wait to try it. Have a great day!~M


This was very good! And yes, it was moist. I think my favorite part was the lemon zest flavoring! I do have a question, though. What pan do you use? I used an 8 by 8 Pyrex,and cooked it longer than suggested,but the cake didn't cook against the applesauce. I am assuming it needs to be a bigger dish, to make the cake thinner. Loved it though! Thanx!


Sounds terrific! I always like to try Irish recipes since I am Irish! I was getting frustrated not being able to find a recipe without raisins. My mom cant remember her recipe for applesauce cake that she made when I was young. Well, the Irish must stick together through some ways, because your recipe is EXACTLY the same one as hers! I cant wait to get my own kids hooked with this, straight out of the oven and with whipped cream. Thank you for the memories!


This sounds simple and delicious.
