Applesauce by itself can be rather “blah”. Add it to this bread and you will have a wonderful bread with your coffee (it’s like coffee cake) or for a simple dessert.

Ingredients:

Topping:

• 1/4 cup pecans
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 tsp. cinnamon

Batter:

• 1 1/2 cups applesauce
• 1 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 2 eggs

• 1/2 tsp. baking powder
• 1/4 tsp. salt
• 1/2 tsp. allspice
• 1 tsp. cinnamon
• 1 tsp. nutmeg
• 1/2 cup chopped pecans

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Grease two loaf pans.
3. In a small bowl, combine topping ingredients and set aside.
