1 cup+3 tbspAll-purpose flour
2 tspBaking powder
1/2 tspSalt
3/4 cupGranulated sugar
1 tspCinnamon
1/2 tspNutmeg
1/2 tspCloves
1/2 cupUnsweetened applesauce
1/4 cupWhole milk
1/4 cupMelted butter
1.5 tspVanilla extract
1 cupGrated carrots
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F to ensure even heat distribution.
Stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves in a medium bowl until fully incorporated.
Combine the applesauce, milk, melted butter, vanilla, and grated carrots in a separate bowl.
Fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture until just combined.
Pour the batter into a greased baking dish.
Bake for 50 minutes until the top is set and the bottom forms a rich, molten sauce.
Notes
You can substitute the unsweetened applesauce with mashed banana for a fruity twist. Ensure the baking powder is fresh to guarantee the proper rise. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and warm before serving.
