Applesauce Yogurt Cake

Once again, I am baking away for something to serve at a bible study luncheon or a gathering at our home for fellowship and prayer time. This applesauce cake recipe is an adaptation of a good old standard family go-to cake that has been updated with more nutrition and more spices and a better overall consistency.

1 ½ cups white or whole wheat flour
¾ cups coconut flour
½ cup almond flour
1 ½ cups sugar (white, brown or coconut)
2 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
¾ teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 3/4 cups applesauce
1 1/4 cups yogurt (see notes regarding fat percentage)
1 egg
1/3 cup coconut oil
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preheat the oven to 325ºF. Grease a 12-cup Bundt pan.
2. In large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and salt.
3. In a separate bowl, mix applesauce, yogurt, egg, oil and vanilla. Add to dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
4. Pour into prepared pan.
5. Bake for 60-65 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
6. Cool 30-45 minutes or longer before turning it out onto a cooling rack. Before turning it out, you might want to run a paring knife around the center circle to loosen it a bit.
