+For the vegan version replace the first two eggs with a quarter cup of unsweetened applesauce, one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar and one quarter teaspoon of baking soda. Beat them together and slowly add the sugar as directed in the original recipe. Replace the butter with vegan butter of your choice. and continue the recipe as given. For the final egg step mix 2 tablespoons of plant-based milk (I used oat milk) and mix in 6 tablespoons of sugar, apply as directed in the non-vegan version.
