I adapted this recipe several years ago from one shown on the back of a bag of C&H dark brown sugar. It's a very moist cake, and particularly tasty if you use homemade apple sauce.

- 1/4 cup canola or light olive oil
- 1-1/2 cups homemade applesauce

Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line the bottom of a 13x9. (I used a 9x5 loaf pan.)

3. Combine flour and baking soda; mix well.
4. In large mixing bowl, combine sugar with spices, salt, eggs, oil, and applesauce, in that order. If using chunky applesauce, pulse first in a food processor.
