  • Beat together butter and brown sugar on high speed for 1 minute. Beat in egg. Scrape down sides of bowl and, on low speed, beat in buttermilk (mixture will look curdled). Beat in applesauce. Add flour mixture to bowl and beat on low speed until combined.

  1. This is my son's favorite! It is so quick and easy. Just beware; the recipe doesn't specify a crock-pot SIZE. I tried in my oval one first and it burned around the edges way before the time was up. I think the normal, old-fashioned, ROUND crockpot is what it was meant for. I am trying it in one of those tonight.
