Instructions:
-
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (325 degrees F if using a glass baking pan).
-
Line a 13×9 inch metal cake pan with foil and lightly grease or spray the pan.
-
In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the butter together with the granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
-
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla and applesauce, until well combined.
-
In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, ground ginger, salt, and nutmeg. Stir this mixture into the egg mixture alternately with the milk, until just combined.
-
Gently fold in the diced apples until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it out evenly.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Allow the cake to cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes.
-
Invert the pan and carefully turn out the cake onto a serving platter, removing the foil from the bottom.
-
Turn the cake right side up on the rack and let it cool completely before glazing.
To make the Glaze:
-
In a small bowl, whisk together the icing sugar and lemon juice until smooth.
-
Using a fork, drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake, allowing it to drip down the sides.
-
