What's in the Oven? : Applesauce Bread

So this is what I made this week. Well, not all I made. I also did a Banana Bread, but It was all eaten up before I got around to remembering that I should share with you what I've been up to. After we ate all the banana bread, I remembered that we didn't have anymore Banana's in the house, So I decided to research what else I could make. I found a few different recipes. Applesauce Bread sounded pretty good, and simple enough. So that's what I decided to make.

So first things first. I didn't have everything on the recipe list. But I didn't find that out until I had already mixed most of the concoction up. So the list below shows what I actually put into my Applesauce Bread. The verdict on how it tasted? Well... we'll get to that later on.

1 1/2 cups flour
1 1/4 cups applesauce
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1/3 cup butter softened
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Set the oven to 350 degrees. It needs to be that hot. Then  grease and flour your loaf pan, so that you don't have to deal with that once your batter is ready.

So you start off smooshing the butter and sugar together, then smoosh in the egg and applesauce. Pretty simple right? Then you add in all the dry ingredients. Mixing them up until they're a decent consistency (NOT DRY).

And I found half a bag of chocolate chips in the cabinet. So in my case I poured them in to taste, adding them into the mixture before putting it into the margarine and flour treated loaf pan.

Then into the oven it went for an hour.

Sure felt like a long time.

Ok. Emma you're right. I can't pour it out of the pan before it's cooled. *hopes it remelds before morning >.>*

Verdict : It didn't taste half bad. To be honest, it was a little spicy, but the chocolate balanced that out. Polke A Dot even ate some. So it couldn't have been all that bad. He doesn't like anything that might be good for him.
