Maple Applesauce Cake
This cake is sweetened with pancake table maple syrup; Mrs. Butterworth's is the brand that is used.

3 1/3 c flour	3/4 c pecans, chopped
1 1/2 t baking soda	3/4 c raisins
1 1/2 t cinnamon	3/4 c butter
3/4 t salt	1 1/2 c pancake maple syrup
3/4 t nutmeg	2 eggs
1/4 t cloves	1 1/2 t vanilla
	1 1/2 c applesauce

Preheat oven to 325°F. Grease bottom of 9" tube pan.

Sift the dry ingredients in a bowl. Put pecans and raisins in a small bowl and toss with about 2 large spoonfuls of flour mixture to separate and to coat. In large mixing bowl, cream butter well. Gradually add in the pancake syrup, making it very light. Beat in the eggs and vanilla. Alternately add in the flour mixture and the applesauce. Stir in the floured nuts and raisins. Pour into prepared pan and bake for about 1 hour, or until cake tests clean. Cool on rack for 15 minutes in pan before turning out.
