Method

How to make Applesauce Nut Bread

  • No need to preheat the oven, just lightly grease an 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 inch baking pan (not a 9x5).
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter and sugar. Beat in eggs one at a time, followed by the applesauce.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt and spices. By hand, or with a mixer on low speed, beat flour mixture into applesauce mixture. Stir in toasted nuts and pour into prepared pan. Top with coarse sugar, if desired.
  • Place pan in a cold oven and turn oven on to 350°F.
  • Bake for 80-90 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the top of the loaf is browned.
  • Cool for 5 minutes in the pan, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
