Recipe by Neal Pinckney

Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Place the applesauce, water, sugar and dried fruit in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer for 20 minutes. Allow to cool.

Mix the egg replacer into the fruit mixture, then sprinkle in the flour and baking powder while mixing. Add water if necessary to make a stiff batter.

Pour into a non-stick 9" X 5" X 3" loaf pan or 8" X 8" baking pan, sprinkle a little brown sugar on top and bake for 1 ½ to 2 hours or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean (not counting the sticky fruit).
