Add the sugar, blending well. Add the beaten eggs a bit at a time, scraping bowl occasionally until they are all incorporated. Stir in vanilla and lemon zest. In another bowl, stir together dry ingredients. Add to batter, alternating with applesauce, blending on slow speed of mixer. Fold in chopped raisins. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake until cake tests done, about 60 to 65 minutes. Let cake cool well in pan before inverting. Sprinkle with sifted powdered sugar before serving.
