Ingredients:

1/4 cup cooking oil

3/4 cup granulated sugar

2 tablespoons molasses

1 large egg

3/4 cup apple sauce

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

3/4 teaspoon baking soda

2 teaspoons crushed cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon allspice

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray an 8" x 8" cake pan with nonstick baking spray. In a large mixing bowl, stir together the oil, 3/4 cup sugar, molasses, egg, applesauce, and vanilla. Continue stirring as you add the flour, baking powder, soda, and spices and stir until smooth. Spoon batter into prepared pan.
