Serves: 4-6
Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 2 teaspoons nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • ½ cup whole milk
  • ½ cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 2 cups brown sugar
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 cups apples – peeled, cored, and coarsely chopped
  • 1 cup toasted pecans
Directions
  1. In a bowl, combine flour, nutmeg, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
  2. In another mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar, then mix the milk, oil, applesauce, vanilla and the chopped apples.
  3. Stir this liquid mixture into the flour mixture. Add toasted pecans and mix. Do not beat or blend, just stir enough to mix evenly.
  4. Divided this mixture between two greased 8-in. x 4-in. bread/loaf pans. Decorate the top with sliced apples if you like, how I did in the picture. Bake at 350 degrees F for 40-45 minutes or until bread leaves the sides and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  5. Allow it to cool for 10-15 minutes on a the wire rack before removing from pan. Slice the bread using a serrated knife, and serve with a side of butter.
