Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

- Add the applesauce and sour cream. Mix again.
- Crack the eggs into the bowl and mix well.
- In a small separate bowl, add the flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Mix to combine.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in the bowl of the stand mixer. Mix well until the flour mixture is completely mixed in, but do not overmix.
- Butter a 9x13 inch baking dish well or spray with cooking spray. Pour half of the batter into the bottom of the prepare baking dish and spread it into an even layer. Sprinkle the filling mixture over the top of the batter. Top with the rest of the batter then sprinkle the walnut topping over the top of the cake.

Notes
- If you do not like walnuts, you can leave the walnuts out and crumble the cinnamon sugar mixture on top of the cake.
- It's ok if the batter is not fully smooth. Depending on how chunky the applesauce is, there will be lumps left in the batter.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before serving.
