In a large bowl, whisk together hot water, applesauce, butter, lemon juice and vanilla.
Add dry mix to wet, and gently fold until just combined.
DO NOT OVER-MIX or protein powder will make the cake dense.

A tester inserted into the center should come out clean but moist.
Let cool for 10 minutes, transfer to cooling rack to cool completely.
