2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 eggs
1/2 cup molasses
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 1/2 cups chopped peeled baking apples (1 1/2 medium)

I Made this as cupcakes and it surprisingly came out even better. I would recommend using paper liners.

This cake was a disappointment. It was dry and flavorless. I won't be making it again.

I made this recipe using maple syrup instead of molasses. It is also very tasty.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
