2 large eggs
1 cup Mott's® Applesauce
1 cup granulated sugar

4 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F and prepare a 9 inch round cake pan by either a) spraying it with a baking spray containing flour, b) buttering and flouring the pan, or c) buttering the pan and lining it with parchment paper.
