Morning Applesauce Loaf (Oamc) image

For those who like (or need) to eat breakfast on the go, this is a great option. Be warned, though, that this cooks at a low temperature for 2 hours, then it really needs to sit for a good day before you slice it (which is not included in the prep time) but it is absolutely awesome with coffee, tea, or milk. You can make this when you have the time and freeze it by the slab (I meant slice) for quick thawing.

Time 2h30m

Yield 2 loaves

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup shortening
1 1/2 cups brown sugar, firmly packed
4 eggs
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon ground cloves
3/4 teaspoon nutmeg
2 cups sweetened applesauce
1 1/2 cups uncooked oats (quick or old-fashioned)
1 cup raisins
1 cup finely chopped pitted dates
1 cup coarsely chopped nuts (your choice, but I prefer walnuts)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 275 degrees.
  • Beat shortening and sugar together until creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • Sift together 2 cups of the flour, baking powder, soda, salt and spices. Add alternately with applesauce to creamed mixture; blend well. Stir in oats.
  • Combine remaining 1/2 cup flour with raisins, dates, and nuts; stir to coat fruits and nuts evenly with flour. Stir into batter.
  • Pour into 2 greased and waxed paper-lined 8-1/2" x 4-1/2" x 2-1/2" loaf pans. Set a pan of hot water in the bottom of oven before adding loaves.
  • Bake loaves for 2 hours. Loosen edges; cool on wire rack about.
  • 10 minutes. Remove from pans; cool thoroughly. Wrap cooled bread.
  • in plastic and store one day before slicing.

This loaf was a complete disaster! It didn't rise properly and it was burnt on the bottom. I had to throw it away. I'm not sure what went wrong, but I'll definitely not be making this recipe again.

This loaf was okay. It was a bit too sweet for my taste, and the texture was a bit dense. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I was a bit disappointed with this loaf. It was dry and crumbly, and the applesauce flavor was not very strong. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I'm not a big fan of applesauce, but I really enjoyed this loaf! The applesauce is not overpowering and it gives the loaf a nice moist texture. I also love the addition of cinnamon and nutmeg, which give it a warm and cozy flavor.
