1 1/2 c. flour
1 c. sugar
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. nutmeg (optional)
4 tbsp. oil
1 tsp. vinegar
1 tsp. vanilla
1 c. applesauce

Sift dry ingredients into a greased 8 inch pan. Make 3 depressions. Put oil in one, vinegar in one, and vanilla in one. Pour applesauce over it and mix well. Bake 30 minutes at 350 degrees. Serve from baking pan. (Mix, bake, and serve from the same pan.)

Note: This is very moist but you can ice it with caramel or cream cheese frosting. Also, pureed carrots instead of applesauce makes a wonderful carrot cake.
