x

1/2 c Butter
1 c Sugar
3 Eggs
2 c Flour, all-purpose
1 t Baking powder
1/2 t Salt
1/2 t Cinnamon, ground
1/4 t Nutmeg, ground
1 c Applesauce
1/4 c Dark molasses (treacle)
1 c Raisins
1/2 c Nuts, chopped
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Combine flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg; set aside. Combine applesauce and molasses. Add dry ingredients alternately with applesauce mixture to egg mixture. Fold in raisins and nuts. Pour into a greased 9 1/4 x 5 1/4 x 2 3/4 inch loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes, remove from pan and continue cooling on a wire rack. NOTES: * A simple, fragrant, apple-nut raisin bread -- I found this recipe on the back of a label for a baking loaf pan. It is easy to make and because of the molasses it is very fragrant while baking. Yield: 1 large loaf. : Difficulty: easy. : Time: 15 minutes preparation, 1 hour baking, 30 minutes cooling. : Precision: measure the ingredients. : Lou Ann Puetz : Tektronix Inc.
