Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
Peel, core, and finely chop the apples. Set them aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Whisk the dry ingredients together until they are well mixed.
In another bowl, whisk together the unsweetened applesauce, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Gradually incorporate the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until combined but be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the chopped apples, walnuts, and raisins until they are evenly dispersed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 45 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the cake on its own or with a dollop of unsweetened whipped cream or yogurt for added flavor.
