Recipe For Applesauce Bread

Preheat oven to 325º

Stir in dry ingredients until just combined
Pour into a greased 9×5 inch loaf pan and bake for 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean

Allowing your cakes, cupcakes, and cookies to cool completely is essential before frosting or icing them. The frosting or icing on your cake will melt and slip right off the top if your baked goods are too warm, or it will melt and soak right in.

When working with delicious dishes, it might be challenging to be patient, but giving yourself that extra time is crucial.

What Is Applesauce Used For In Baking?

Applesauce is an excellent substitute for oil in baking, especially when you want to cut down on the amount of fat. It will keep your goodies moist without compromising their flavor or texture at all!

How Do You Store Applesauce Bread?

One of the most popular ways to store bread is in a container with an airtight seal. We like storing our applesauce bread this way because it will last longer than being left out on the countertop or in pans where there’s no extra protection against moisture from getting inside!

Can You Freeze Bread Made with Applesauce?

You sure can!

My suggestion is to let your bread cool completely. Slice the bread and wrap each individual piece in plastic wrap then place all the wrapped pieces into either an airtight freezable container or place the wrapped pieces into a ziplock bag then place into the freezer.

How Long Does The Bread Last?

If you keep your Applesauce Bread in an airtight container at room temperature it will last for about one week. If you choose to freeze your bread, it should be good for up to 3 months.
