Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Make the cake: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, cloves, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.
- Add the eggs, applesauce, vanilla extract, light brown sugar, and vegetable oil, and whisk until the batter is thick and smooth.
- Make the topping: In a medium bowl, use a fork to cut together the brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and butter until the mixture resembles wet sand.
- Cut the tops off the apples and use a spoon to hollow out the centers, making sure to remove all seeds. Place the apples in baking pan with tall sides. Brush the rims of the apples with lemon juice.
- Fill the apples with cake batter to ¼-inch (6-mm) below their rim. Sprinkle the topping over the batter.
