Honey Applesauce Cake With Lemon Or Orange Recipes

LEMON ORANGE CAKE WITH LEMON HONEY GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Generously coat a bundt pan with cooking spray and set aside.
• In a medium bowl, combine together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Whisk in the orange and lemon zest. Set aside.
• In the bowl of your electric mixer, use the paddle attachment to mix the butter and sugar together for 2 to 3 minutes until light and fluffy.
• To the bowl of your mixer add the lemon juice, orange juice, milk, the eggs and mix to combine. Begin adding the flour mixture a little bit at a time. Scrape the sides of the bowl as necessary. Mix for a couple minutes until the batter is smooth and all the ingredients are well incorporated.
• Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for 50 min to an hour until done. Check the center of the cake with a toothpick and if it comes out clean it's done.
• To make the lemon honey glaze whisk all the ingredients together in a small bowl.
• Let cake cool on a wire rack. Once cool, drizzle the cake with the lemon honey glaze and decorate with additional lemon or orange zest if preferred.

APPLESAUCE AND HONEY CAKE WITH RAISIN GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray an 8x8 pan.
• Cream the butter in a large bowl; while still beating, stream in the honey. Mix in the applesauce.
• Combine the dry ingredients and mix into the applesauce mixture and beat 30 seconds.
• Fold in the nuts and raisins.
• Bake 40 minutes or until the cake springs back in the center and a toothpick comes out clean. While the cake is baking, prepare the raisin glaze.
• In a saucepan, combine the water and chopped raisins. Bring to a boil; add honey, reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes. Remove from heat and add lemon juice. While cake is still warm, pierce cake with a fork (the end of a wooden spoon is too large). Spoon the glaze over the cake.

HONEYED APPLE CAKE

Steps:

• Turn the batter into a greased and floured tube pan. Bake the cake into a preheated 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven for 1 hour and 10 minutes, or until it tests done with a toothpick. Let cool on a rack. Makes 16 servings.
