Sure, blueberries would be yummy. And you can sub whole wheat flour 1:1.

Can I add blueberries to this and use whole wheat flour instead of white? Same amount?
Lisa!!! Thanks so much for sharing your tweaks and results!!! so appreciated. and sounds delish!
I made this today but used spelt flour and reduced the sugar to 1 cup. It came out great and was definitely sweet enough. Made my own cinnamon sugar too… 1 TBSP sugar and 1 TSP cinnamon. Only used 2 TSPs of it. Thanks!
The applesauce shouldn’t make it dense. This cake is moist and heavier than say a sponge cake but still on the lighter side. Perhaps it was over-mixed?
yay! thanks!
Hi Jamie, I recently made this cake and it had a great flavor, but the consistency was too dense. I don’t know if I over-mixed it or used too much applesauce… Any advice?
This is a wonderfully easy cake and a real crowd-pleaser.
