• 2 pieces large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.75 cup milk
• 0.25 cup butter, melted

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan with butter or non-stick spray.

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and granulated erythritol until frothy. Add the unsweetened applesauce, vanilla extract, milk, and melted butter, and mix until smooth.

Step 4

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter.

Step 5

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly 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.

Allow the cake to cool in the pan on a wire rack before serving. Slice and enjoy your Sugar-Free Classic Spice Cake.
