  Now, don't be put off by the title, but there were no leftovers after Thanksgiving dinner. And I even made it gluten-free so my brother in law and I could enjoy some dessert, too. And since I'm trying to eat less granulated (white) sugar, I used an alternative for that, too. The Most Delicious Apple Cider Cake  is where you can find the original version.  But this is how I made it: APPLE CIDER DONUT CAKE INGREDIENTS 3 cups (360 g) all-purpose GF flour blend 2 tsp (5 g) ground cinnamon 1/4 tsp (1 g) ground nutmeg 1 tsp (5.6 g) salt 1 1/2 tbsp (21 g) GF baking powder 1 1/2 cups (300 g) coconut sugar 1/2 cup (110 g) brown sugar 1 cup (224 g) vegetable oil 3 eggs at room temperature 1 cup (250 g) applesauce at room temperature 1 cup (248 g) apple cider at room temperature 1 tsp (5.6 g) vanilla extract INSTRUCTIONS Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F. Spray a bundt pan with non-stick spray and then dust with flour. Set aside. In a medium size mixing bowl, combine the flour, c...

Preheat oven to 350F Ingredients: 1 1/2 Cups Flour 1 Cup Sugar 1 Teaspoon Baking Powder 1 Teaspoon Salt 1/2 Teaspoon Baking Soda 1 Cup Sour Cream or Buttermilk (or put 4 teaspoons vinegar in a one cup measure, then add milk. let set a couple minutes. may do this first before following Directions) 1 Egg (well beaten) Butter Powdered Sugar Cinnamon Chopped Nuts, any Directions: Sift dry ingredients.
