1. Preheat oven to 350°F and grease an 8x8 baking dish and line the bottom with parchment paper. 2. In a medium bowl, combine all dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger). Set aside. 3. In a separate bowl, combine all wet ingredients (eggs, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vegetable oil, applesauce, milk, vanilla extract). Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk together until just combined. Pour the cake batter into the prepared baking dish. 4. Bake for 30 minutes. Once baked, take it out and run a knife around the edge of the dish. Let cool in the dish for 15 minutes, then carefully invert it onto a cooling rack to cool completely for another 15-20 minutes. 5. In the meantime, prepare the frosting by beating together softened unsalted butter, powder sugar, and maple syrup until smooth and creamy. 6. Once the cake is completely cool, frost it and drizzle caramel on top. Slice and enjoy!
