Making this cake a crowd-pleaser, as well as mixing in spices, nuts, or dried fruit makes this dish a crowd-pleaser. Just a few spices to choose from are cinnamonnamon, nutmeg, and allspice. For a crunch, you may also like to add pecans or walnuts. Raisins or chopped apples add a touch of natural sweetness and texture to this cake. Some bakers use homemade applesauce, but store-bought will do, too.

Applesauce may be substituted for the butter or oil for a healthier alternative in any cake recipe. One-half cup of applesauce may also be substituted for one egg in several baking recipes for those with egg allergies, according to the company.
