These are fantastic, really more of a cakey brownie, so I suppose you could call it applesauce cake if you want. A bit better for you than traditional brownies and kids love them! The nutrition facts are at Calorie Count!
Applesauce Brownies
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 cup dark brown sugar, firmly packed
2 large eggs
1 T pure vanilla extract
1 cup applesauce
1 1/4 cup all purpose flour
1/4 cup cocoa
1 t baking powder
1/2 t baking soda
1/2 cup chopped pecans
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 F. Lightly grease and flour an 8x8 inch baking pan.
In a medium sauce pan, melt the butter. Remove from heat and add the sugar, eggs, vanilla, and applesauce. Beat well by hand with a wooden spoon.
In a small bowl, mix the flour cocoa, baking powder, and baking soda.
Stir the dry mix into the liquid mix. Add the chopped pecans and stir again.
Pour into the prepped pan and bake for aboug 25 minutes or so. Stick a knife in the middle to test for donness. If it comes out clean, it's done. Another method to check is to lightly touch the center. If it sinks or feels liquidy, it's not done. If it springs back to the touch, it's done!
