• Prep time: 10 min

• 2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
• 2 tsp cinnamon
• 2 tsp ground ginger
• ¼ tsp nutmeg
• 1 tsp baking powder
• ½ tsp baking soda
• ½ cup unsweetened applesauce
• ½ cup light brown sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• 1 whole apple, diced
• 1 whole apple, sliced thin
• 1 tbsp raw sugar
• ¼ tsp cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350. Grease an 8" square baking pan and set aside. Toss diced apples with 1 tsp cinnamon until well coated and set aside. In a large bowl, whisk flour, remaining cinnamon, ginger, baking soda and baking powder together. Add applesauce, sugars, extract and non-dairy milk. Mix until almost combined, then add diced apples. Continue to mix, adding a little extra non-dairy milk if necessary. Pour batter into baking pan and use a spatula to evenly distribute batter. Arrange apple slices over top, a little overlap is okay. Mix 1/2 tsp cinnamon and 1 tbsp sugar together until well combined then sprinkle over top of apples until well coated. Bake 35-50 minutes or until an inserted tooth pick comes out clean.
