Quick Applesauce Spice Cake

folkmew's Note:

My sister gave me this recipe. I added whole wheat flour, protein powder and fiber powder. So now it's pretty healthy! You can frost it with caramel cream cheese icing which is delicious! But they taste delicious without too and make a great breakfast muffin. Add toasted pecans! Yum. Spice to your own taste. They freeze well!! If you use that weight loss system that counts points it is only 4 points for a regular sized muffin! :-) Also can be a 9 inch cake.
