Dessert

The best part about this recipe is that all the ingredients are mixed in the blender at one go and the resulting batter is baked. I don’t think cake making can get easier or more variable than this! For a berry cake, swap 1/3 cup the applesauce for ½ cup fresh or frozen, then thawed, pureed berries (strawberries, blueberries, etc). Orange more your thing? Substitute 1/2 the hot water measurement for orange juice and add 3 tbsp grated zest. Coconut lovers can swap 1/2 the hot water for coconut milk, add 1 tsp coconut extract and 1/3 cup shredded coconut. Finally, if you want chocolate cake, substitute ½ cup flour with cocoa powder and add 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips or nuts after blending the batter smooth!
