Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups Unsweetened applesauce
- 0.5 cups Nonfat plain Greek yogurt
- 3 large Egg whites
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cups Skim milk
- 1 as needed Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly coat a 9x13-inch baking pan with cooking spray and set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set the dry ingredients aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, unsweetened applesauce, and Greek yogurt. Whisk until smooth.
Add the egg whites and vanilla extract to the wet mixture. Whisk until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three additions, alternating with the skim milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined after each addition. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 28-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve plain or top with fresh fruit, a light dusting of powdered sugar, or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra special treat.
