low-fat wholemeal apple cake

today i baked a healthier version of an apple cake. who says you have to forego the sweetest things in life when you're dieting?

the cake is actually a pound cake, but i changed half of the butter to applesauce. because of the amount of liquid, i reduced the number of eggs to only 1 egg. the cake is actually nice, considering that i sort of threw everything in.

low-fat wholemeal apple cake

60g butter
65g applesauce
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla essence
75g brown sugar (i decreased the sugar since there's sugar in the applesauce)
65g plain flour
60g wholemeal flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
50g raisins
1 granny smith apple, peeled, cored and chopped.

creaming method, bake at 175 C for 35 mins or until baked.
