About Applesauce

Stir the sauce, spoon it into a cup and smooth the top without leaving large air pockets. Check for added sugar and spices before using it in a recipe that assumes plain applesauce.

Applesauce brings moisture and apple solids to cake batter. It is not equivalent to oil or butter, so a straight replacement can change texture and browning. Use a recipe designed for applesauce when reducing or replacing fat.
