Answer 2

Apricot "Poundcake"
Serves 16

With just 2 tbsps of butter, it's not a real poundcake, but it's a delicious one.

1 2/3 cups dried apricots, chopped
3/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
2 tbsps unsalted butter
2 tbsps light olive oil
1/4 cup low-fat buttermilk
3 eggs
2 tsps vanilla extract
2 tsps grated orange zest
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 1/2 cups cake flour
1 tsp each baking powder and salt
1/2 tsp baking soda.

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degF. Spray a 10-inch tube pan with a removable bottom with nonstick cooking spray.

2. In a medium saucepan, combine 1/3 cup of the apricots, the applesauce, and 1/2 cup of water. Simmer for 5 minutes or until the apricots are softened. Transfer to a food processor or blender. Add the butter, oil, and buttermilk, and process until smooth. Set the apricot mixture aside to cool slightly, then beat in the eggs, vinilla, and orange zest, blending just until smooth. Transfer to a large bowl. Stir in the sugar.

3. In a medium bowl, stir together the cake flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Fold the flour mixture into the apricot mixture in 3 additions. Fold in the remaining 11/3 cups apricots and scrape into the prepared pab.

4. Bake for 40 minutes or until a cake tester inserted halfway between the sides and the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Loosen the cake from the pan, remove the sides, and set the cake on the rack to cool completely.

Hmmmm...... my favorite.... ;-p
