For the last five years or so, I've been very interested in eating less fat. I also love to cook, so you probably have figured out my family has been subjected to many interesting dishes. Some were keepers, some went straight into the garbage!
Here's a recipe I tried yesterday that everyone loved! Of course, they ate it as a dessert with vanilla ice cream. I liked it just fine without.
NO-FAT CINNAMON COFFEE CAKE
1 c. plain nonfat yogurt
1 t. baking soda
1/4 c. applesauce
1 c. brown sugar
2 egg whites
1 t. vanilla
1 1/2 c. flour
2 t. baking powder
Topping: 1/2 c. brown sugar
1 T. cinnamon
Lightly coat a 9 " pan with cooking spray. In small bowl, combine yogurt and baking soda; mix well and set aside (mixture will grow in volume). In large mixing bowl, beat applesauce with sugar until well mixed. Add egg whites and vanilla; beat well, about 2 min. In another bowl, combine flour with baking powder. Alternately add yogurt mixture and flour to applesauce mixture. Mix topping. Spread half the batter in the pan, then sprinkle with half the topping. Repeat. Bake in 350 oven for 45 minutes.
P.S. I added 1 chopped apple to the batter!
