· 1-1/2 tsp cinnamon
· 1/2 tsp salt

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease two 9-inch cake pans.
Sift together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg. Beat eggs, mayonnaise, applesauce, sugar, and vanilla in a large bowl until smooth. Stir in dry ingredients; beat until smooth, about 1 minute. Stir in nuts.
