Ingredients
- ⅔ cup of wholesome pecans
- 2 cups of versatile all-purpose flour
- 1 ⅓ cups of rich packed brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons of aromatic ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon of leavening baking soda
- ½ teaspoon of light baking powder
- ½ teaspoon of fragrant nutmeg
- ½ teaspoon of essential salt
- 1 cup of sweet applesauce
- ¼ cup of refreshing water
- ¼ cup of nourishing vegetable oil
- 1 ½ tablespoons of tangy cider vinegar
Step 1
To start off, let's preheat the oven to a cozy 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius) and generously grease up a lovely 9x5-inch loaf pan.
Step 2
Next, let's lay out those pecans on a baking sheet, allowing them to bask in the warmth of the oven. Keep an eye on them, as they should turn a beautiful golden hue in about 5 to 7 minutes. Once they're done, take them out and dial down the oven temperature to a soothing 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
Step 3
Now, in a spacious bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. In another bowl, gently blend together applesauce, water, vegetable oil, and a dash of vinegar. Merge the two mixtures until just combined, then gently fold in those delightful pecans.
Step 4
Pour this luscious batter into the waiting loaf pan, and let it bake in the oven until a toothpick inserted in the center emerges clean, which should take around 50 to 60 minutes.
Step 5
Once baked to perfection, let the bread cool in the pan for around 10 minutes before gracefully transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy the delightful aroma and flavors of your freshly baked creation!
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Once the applesauce loaf has cooled completely, wrap it tightly in wax paper to preserve its moisture and flavor.
- 2. Store the loaf in an airtight container to prevent it from becoming stale and losing its freshness.
- 3. For a creative twist, try slicing the loaf and storing individual portions in reusable silicone bags for easy grab-and-go snacks.
