I can't even believe it's already September. I came across this recipe and thought it would be perfect
to celebrate BACK TO SCHOOL!
It's simple and delicious!

Butterscotch Apple Cake

2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup oil
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs, room temperature
1/2 cup applesauce
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups diced peeled granny or braeburn apples
2 cups butterscotch chips

Heat oven to 325 degrees F. Coat a 13x9-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray.

In a medium mixing bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. In a large mixing bowl, using a mixer on medium speed, beat together oil, sugar, applesauce, eggs and vanilla for 2-3 minutes or until well combined and doubled in volume. Reduce mixer speed to low and beat in flour mixture until just combined. Stir in apple until combined.

Spread cake batter into prepared baking dish. Evenly sprinkle with butterscotch chips. Bake 45-50 minutes or until well risen, golden brown, and cake pulls away from edges of dish. Cool on a wire rack.
