Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather all your ingredients and equipment.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
  3. In another bowl, combine applesauce, milk, melted butter (or oil), vanilla extract, and grated carrot until smooth.

  5. Combine granulated sugar, brown sugar, and chopped walnuts or pecans, and sprinkle evenly over the batter.
  6. Carefully pour very hot water over the entire mixture in the baking dish.
  7. Place your baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Once baked, let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
