I love my Momâs A-to-Z Bread, but the original recipe was a bit heavy on sugar and oil for my family. My version lowers the sugar and fat but retains all the flavor folks rave about! âEmily Carney, Grand Ledge, Michigan Ingredients:
1 cup sugar |
1/2 cup canola oil |
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce |
3 eggs |
2 cups a to z ingredients (choose from list below) |
1 tablespoon vanilla extract |
2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 cup king arthur premium 100% whole wheat flour |
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans |
a to z ingredients: |
peaches, peeled and chopped |
pears, peeled and chopped |
pineapple (canned), crushed and drained |
dried plums, pitted and chopped |
pumpkin, canned |
raspberries, fresh or frozen |
raisins |
rhubarb, chopped fresh or frozen |
strawberries, chopped fresh or frozen |
sweet potatoes, cooked and mashed |
zucchini, shredded |
Directions:
1. Whisk the sugar, oil, applesauce and eggs in a large bowl. Stir in A to Z ingredients of your choice and vanilla. Combine the all-purpose and whole wheat flours, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt; stir into liquid ingredients just until moistened. Stir in nuts. Pour into two greased 8-in. x 4-in. loaf pans.
2. Bake at 325° for 50-55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks. Yield: 2 loaves (12 slices each).
