In this recipe i reduced the sugar to 1 cup and substituted half the oil for applesauce to reduce the fat level. I have found in previous recipes that if you use all whole wheat flour you get a very dense quick loaf and it is not as light so keep the flour as stated in the recipe. I like to add raisins which have been soaked in apple juice for a half hour. I used one half cup of chopped walnuts in this loaf. It was moist and healthy! Awesome! I will make this loaf once weekly, for it is a nice healthy snack!

this recipe is excellent, and almost exactly my recipe however I add a can of quebec maple beans and a slice of cooked crumbled bacon to the recipe. I use chili powder and just a teaspoon of hot chili flakes. More chili flakes can be added later if someone prefers their chili hot! I leave it in the slow cooker all day on low. It is even better the next day! larry from toronto
