Old Fashioned Spice Cake Recipe

An Old-Fashioned Applesauce Spice Cake recipe includes shredded apple and applesauce to get that nice fluffy and dense texture to your cake.

Spice cakes are a traditional Jewish holiday classic. We don’t always find ourselves having the time to prepare a cake from scratch; that’s when a cake mix comes in handy! If you don’t have a spice cake mix, you can turn your normal yellow cake mix into a spice cake batter by finally adding all the spices into it. These cakes are very simple to make and require less prepping time. Another famous tea cake that can be prepared in less than an hour is the Pumpkin Walnut Bread, and you can relish your cup of tea with a slice of this bread!

It is totally healthy & snackalicious!

Spice Cake Recipe without Applesauce

Running out of applesauce? How about a Spice cake without the applesauce? What? Applesauce gives a nice flavor and texture to your spice cake, but the whole flavor of the spice cake lies in all the spices you add to it. Whip up some cream and add a dollop on top, your spice cake has now turned into a rich and creamy cake, and you’ll never notice any lack of flavor in your cake! If you have a couple of ripe bananas at home, try out a Skillet Banana Cake. It will be equally delicious and soft!

    This is the 4th time since beginning of Sept. making this cake. I use olive oil and sometimes applesauce instead of reg. oil. I’ve used pecans off our tree also. It’s really good and easy. I take some to my mom to share.
    And I will make again for Thanksgiving.

    1. Oh, dear Monya! You have no idea what your kind and special message means to me. Thank you! I love the swap of olive oil and applesauce (I’ll have to try!). And, if I had a pecan tree, I’d be using those, too! Your Mama is very lucky to have such a wonderful daughter! xoxx ~ally

  4. Ally, just made it as I’m having guests over for lunch tomorrow.
    Used a yellow cake mix as I didn’t have the spice mix.
    But then, I added cardamom and ginger powder to it. I didn’t have the Dole juice – added 6 oz of Mountain Dew.

    It has made the cake fluffy and moist thank you so much for the recipe!

    1. Good grief, Maya!! I LOVE LOVE your adjustments! I’ll have to follow you’re lead! The Mountain Dew was genius! Hope you’re guests enjoyed as much as I am thinking about the flavors! See you more right here in the kitchen, luv! xoxx ~ally
