Category: Cakes

Flour-Added Pam for Baking
3 cups flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup butter, softened
2 cups sugar
3 eggs
1 tbsp vanilla
1 cup milk
1/2 cup chopped, toasted pecans
1/2 cup oats, quick cooking
1/2 cup dark brown sugar, packed
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup apple sauce

Preheat oven to 350. Spray a 12 cup Bundt pan with flour-added Pam for Baking. In a medium bowl, thoroughly stir together flour, baking powder and salt.

Beat butter and sugar until creamy. Beat in eggs and vanilla and continue beating for 1 minute or until batter is light. Scrape sides of bowl. By hand, stir in flour mixture alternately with milk.

Pour half of the batter into Bundt pan. I weighed the batter, and half of the batter weighed about 24 oz. If you have a scale, you can weigh out half the batter and pour the rest in. If not, just estimate.

Stir remaining ingredients (pecans, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon and applesauce) into remaining batter in bowl; Spoon into Bundt pan so that it sits on top of first batter. Bake for 55-60 minutes. Cool in pan for 10 minutes. Turn from pan.
