Steps:
- To make the cake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Spray the bottom and sides of a 9-in (23-cm) round cake pan with baking spray and line the bottom with a circle of parchment paper. Set the pan aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, ginger, salt, and baking soda. Add the eggs, sugar, buttermilk, applesauce, and oil and whisk gently just until everything is combined. Use a rubber spatula to scrape the batter into the prepared pan and then smooth the surface so it is even.
- Bake the cake until it is just barely firm to the touch and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 55 minutes. Set the cake aside on a wire rack to cool to room temperature.
- Use a dinner knife to loosen the edges of the cake from the pan sides and then invert it onto your work surface. Peel off and discard the parchment. Invert the cake one more time onto a serving platter.
- To make the frosting: In a large bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, honey, and salt and whisk together aggressively until the cream cheese is slightly aerated (you can also do this with a handheld electric mixer or in a stand mixer).
- Spread the frosting over the top of the cake and don't worry too much about making this perfect. I think a not-too-perfect cake is so much better than a perfect cake. Cut into wedges and serve. Leftovers can be wrapped in plastic wrap and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

APPLESAUCE CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE AND HONEY FROSTING
This super-simple cake, which requires one bowl and one cake pan, comes from Julia Turshen's cookbook "Now & Again," and it's so easy to make you find yourself doing so often, especially throughout the fall when apples are on your mind. (It'd be especially great for Rosh Hashana, the Jewish new year, or for novice or time-pressed Thanksgiving bakers.) The cake's texture and appeal are similar to those of banana bread; if you like, you can stir a large handful or two of raisins, nuts or both into the batter just before you scrape it into the pan. And although you can use homemade applesauce for this, know that store-bought is just fine.

CHRISTMAS APPLESAUCE CAKE
I have changed a basic applesauce cake recipe that belonged to a lady from my hometown who, if living, would now be around 98 years old. Notice what she did with the applesauce and baking soda...that fascinated me and caused me to first make this cake. Now it is THE only applesauce cake I make. I use Robertson's basic mincemeat if I can find it. I sometimes add a dash of cardomon too. We like it best when using black walnuts. Makes a beautiful and more-ish cake!
