  • 4
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees and bake pecans for 5 - 7 minutes until lightly toasted and fragrant.

    Meanwhile, stir flour, both sugars, salt, baking soda and spices together in a large bowl. Stir in eggs, then oil, apple sauce and vanilla. Stir in apples and pecans.
  • 6
    Spoon 2/3's of the apple batter into the prepared pan, then spoon cream cheese filling over the apple mixture, leaving a 1 inch border around the edges of the pan. Spoon remaining apple batter over the cream cheese filling.
  • 7
    Bake cake at 350 degrees for 1 hour - 1 hour 15 minutes, or until a long wooden skewer inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool cake in the pan, on a wire rack for about 1 hour. Remove cake from pan and cool completely, about an additional hour.
