Title: Apple Cake with Caramel Sauce

Ingredients:
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
– 1/2 tsp baking soda
– 1 tsp ground cinnamon
– 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
– 1/2 tsp salt
– 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
– 1/2 cup maple syrup
– 1/2 cup almond milk
– 1/3 cup coconut oil, melted
– 2 apples, peeled, cored, and diced

For the Caramel Sauce:
– 1 cup coconut cream
– 1/2 cup brown sugar
– 1/4 cup maple syrup
– 1/4 tsp salt
– 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
3. In a separate bowl, combine the applesauce, maple syrup, almond milk, and melted coconut oil.
4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
5. Fold in the diced apples until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
6. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth out the top.
7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. While the cake is baking, prepare the caramel sauce. In a saucepan, combine the coconut cream, brown sugar, maple syrup, and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is completely dissolved.
9. Reduce the heat to low and simmer the sauce for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
10. Remove the sauce from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
11. Once the cake is done, let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
12. Drizzle the warm caramel sauce over the cooled cake before serving. You can also serve extra sauce on the side for an extra indulgent treat.
