Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Ground ginger
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 0.5 cup Maple syrup
• 0.25 cup Brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup Orange juice
• 1 tablespoon Grated orange zest
• 1 tablespoon White vinegar

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground ginger, ground nutmeg, and salt. Whisk until well blended.

Step 3

In a separate medium-sized bowl, mix together the unsweetened applesauce, maple syrup, brown sugar, vanilla extract, orange juice, orange zest, and white vinegar until smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or wooden spoon. Mix until just combined and no dry pockets of flour remain. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Step 7

Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 8

Once cooled, slice and serve as is or dust with a bit of powdered sugar for garnish if desired. Enjoy!
