My Own Version Of Peanut Butter Apple Cake

Makes 8 servings

½ cup softened butter

1 cup brown sugar

¾ cup chunky peanut butter

1 egg

1 cup chunk style applesauce

1½ cups sifted flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon cinnamon

½ teaspoon nutmeg

¼ teaspoon ground cloves

 

 

CREAM TOGETHER the butter, sugar, and peanut butter. Beat in the egg. Stir in the applesauce. Sift the remaining dry ingredients together and slowly stir them into the batter. Mix well. Liberally grease and flour an eight-inch-square pan. Pour the batter into the pan and bake at 350 degrees until done (about 40 to 45 minutes). The cake is done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool before attempting to remove from the pan.

 

Even better when eaten with someone you love.
