Instructions

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour an 8-inch cake pan.

2. Beat sugar and butter together in a large bowl with an electric mixer until creamy. Add applesauce; beat well. Stir in flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and cloves until just combined. Fold in walnuts and raisins; spoon cake batter into the prepared pan.

3. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Serve warm.
