Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened apple sauce
  • 1/3 cup neutral oil, i.e. sunflower oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup So Good™ Soy Regular
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups wholemeal flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 cups finely chopped cooking apple (about 2 apples)

Method

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 160ºC fan bake. Line a 21cm round cake tin with baking paper.
  2. Step 2

    In a large bowl, whisk together sugar, apple sauce, oil and egg. Whisk in soy milk, lemon juice and vanilla.
  3. Step 3

    Add dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold in apple. Pour mixture into prepared tin and level out the surface.
  4. Step 4

    Bake for 50-60 minutes, until cake springs back when lightly pressed and a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean.
  5. Step 5

    Leave to cool in tin for 15 minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack.

Tips

  • Cake can be served warm or cold. Store in an airtight container in a cool place - it will keep well for 5 days.
