Whole Wheat Applesauce Cake with No Added Oil

I used applesauce to replace oil/butter in this cake recipe. The cake came out extremely soft and spongy.

Sugar - a little more than 1/2 cup
Applesauce - 1 cup
Vanilla essence - 1/2 tsp
Milk - 1/4 cup
Egg - 1
Raisins, nuts dusted with flour - optional
Oil for greasing the pan

Method:

Grease the cake pan with any vegetable oil and pre-heat the oven at 350 F.
Sift flour, salt, nutmeg powder and baking soda using a sifter in a big bowl.
Add rest of the ingredients one after the other in the same bowl and mix. Pour the batter in the greased pan and bake for 30-45 minutes until the tooth pick inserted comes clean.
