Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease and line a 9x9 inch baking dish with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the applesauce, oil, plant-based milk, and vanilla. Mix well until all ingredients are fully combined.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix well. But do not overmix.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan. Set aside.
  6. In a small microwave safe bowl, add the brown sugar, cinnamon and vegan butter. Microwave for 30 seconds or until the vegan butter is fully melted. Mix well and drizzle it over the batter. With a knife or a chopstick, gently swirl the vegan butter mixture around and into the batter.
  7. Bake for 35–40 minutes.
  8. Remove the cake from the oven and place the pan on a cooling rack for 30 minutes before removing it from the pan.

Notes

  • Measure the flour correctly: To avoid using too much flour and ending up with a dense cake, first fluff it up in its bag using a fork, then spoon it into the measuring cup before using the back of a knife to level the top.
  • Avoid over-mixing the batter: Otherwise, you’ll end up with a dense, rubbery cake. Mix it until ‘just’ combined – a few tiny lumps are fine.
  • Leave it to cool: This cake is fragile straight from the oven. It’s best to leave it to cool before slicing, then optionally reheat if preferred.
