Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 350. In a large bowl, beat together the buttery spread, brown sugar and sugar until smooth.
2. Add egg whites, applesauce, cinnamon, cloves, salt and vanilla, then mix well. Add both of the flour and baking soda. Stir until blended, then add the dates, walnuts, and/or raisins, if desired.
3. Spray the Bundt pan with Pam or the like. Pour the batter into a Bundt pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool slightly, then turn it out upside down onto a serving plate. Sprinkle with confectioner’s sugar if desired.
