Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cups Unsweetened applesauce
- 0.75 cups Light eggnog
- 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cups Powdered sugar (for optional glaze)
- 1 tablespoons Light eggnog (for optional glaze)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a loaf pan (or line it with parchment paper).
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, ground nutmeg, and ground cinnamon. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the unsweetened applesauce, light eggnog, granulated sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
Slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
Remove the pan from the oven and let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer the loaf to a wire rack to cool completely.
For the optional glaze, whisk powdered sugar and light eggnog together until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled bread before serving (optional).
Slice the bread into 12 equal portions and serve. Enjoy!
