Ingredients
Scale
Wet ingredients:
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup canola or olive oil
- 2 teaspoons real vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup plain nonfat yogurt
- 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
Dry ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 1/2 cup white whole wheat flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
And the rest:
- 3 apples, peeled, cored and sliced
- Cinnamon Coconut Caramel sauce (recipe here)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a 9-inch round baking pan by spraying with cooking spray, then dust with flour.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs until they are frothy, then, with the beater on, add the sugar just a bit at a time (like a Tablespoon or so), beating as you add the sugar for about 3 minutes total. Add the oil and vanilla and blend shortly to mix.
- Now put away the beaters and get out your mixing spoon. Fold in the yogurt and applesauce, then stir in the dry ingredients JUST until mixed. Chop up one of the 3 apples (or about 1/3 of the slices) into small chunks and fold it into the batter.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared pan and spread it out evenly. Arrange the remaining apple slices on top. Bake at 350 F. for about 45 – 55 minutes or until a wooden pick or knife inserted in center comes out clean.
- While the cake is baking, prepare the coconut caramel sauce (recipe here) and set aside. When the cake is done, drizzle the apples with caramel sauce. Serve with extra caramel sauce for drizzling.
