How To Make applesauce cake & salted caramel glaze

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 350ºF. Whisk together all of the dry cake ingredients. Mix in the eggs, oil, applesauce, and vanilla just until batter forms. Don't overmix! Grease and dust with flour a 12-cup bundt cake pan. Pour in the batter. Bake for 55-65 minutes, until toothpick comes out clean.
  • 2
    Allow to cool for 15-20 minutes. Use a small rubber spatula to gently separate the edges of the cake from the sides of the pan if necessary. Invert cake onto a serving plate.

    Over medium high heat, melt the butter. Mix in the brown sugar, salt, and whipping cream and bring to a rolling boil. Allow to boil without stirring for 1 minute. Whisk in the confectioners' sugar 1/4 cup at a time until you've reached your desired smooth consistency (more sugar = more frosting-like). I used 3/4 cup. Pour glaze over the cake immediately.
