Applesauce Cake

This recipe comes from the wonderful organist at St Thomas More church, Marianne Kremmer

Steam 2 small apples, cored and quartered, adding sugar and cinnamon to taste, until soft. Press the apples through a mill to remove the skins. Allow to cool.

1 1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 stick butter, softened
1 cup applesauce
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp cloves, ground
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 egg
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup chopped dates

Mix sugar, butter, spices, salt, baking soda and applesauce. Beat for 2 minutes

Add eggs and flour. Beat for 1 minute.
Stir in dates and walnuts
Pour into a greased 8 or 9 inch greased and floured square pan.

Bake 350 for 50 minutes. (I used my convection oven and it took 35 minutes.)

Whip cream!
