I have to give this bread a four star rating as written, but by incorporating some different reviewers suggestions, this bread is definitiely a 5+!! First of all, I used 1 1/2 cups of chunky applesauce and only 1/4 cup of oil. I also used 1/2 cup of white sugar and 1/2 cup of brown sugar. I doubled all the spices- this was definitely a must for me. I didn't think the bread was even that spicy like that, especially for a recipe called SPICED Applesauce Bread. I added a crumb topping of 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup chopped pecans and 1/2 tsp. cinnamon as well. This turned this bread into a real treat! I loved how moist the bread was, and it made my house smell amazing while it baked. I'm definitely not a baker (cooking is much more my cup of tea), so if I can make an amazing applesauce bread with this recipe, anybody can!

This bread was ok, but a little on the bland side. If I made it again I would use more spices.

..Really like this recipe. I made this over the weekend for company and just kept it in the fridge to snack on. Perfect with strawberry butter OR cream cheese with chopped pecans...The only change I made was used br sugar, homemade applesauce and rounded all the spices...Thanks Louise!

Very good, great flavor. I increased the applesauce to ~1 1/2 cups and decreased the oil to 1/4 c. Also doubled the cinnamon and added a dash of cloves. I put in a teaspoon of vanilla out of habbit before I realized the recipe didnt call for it... Great recipe, will try it as dense muffins to bring in to work next.

Excellent bread! Easy to make on a moments notice too since everything is always on hand in my kitchen. I doubled each of the spices but other than that didn't change a thing. It was moist and delicious and my entire family really loved it. I'll definitely make this again.

This was great, especially warm from the oven. I used chunky (homestyle)applesauce, walnuts and a crumb topping (just butter, flour and sugar). The bread looked like it came from a bakery. Will make again and again.

This is so easy and yummy! I use 1 cup of bread flour and 1 cup of whole wheat flour instead of the 2 cups all-purpose flour. Also, I add 1/8 teaspoon of ground cloves. This is a great treat for your family or to take as a gift or a treat to be shared at an event!

GREAT recipe. I am a 15-year-old and at a beginner/intermediate level in baking, but this recipe was incredibly easy. I did modify the recipe a bit, though. First of all, I had no pecans, but I did add walnuts (about 3/4 cup) and chopped apples (same amount). Second, I used 1 cup whole wheat flower and one cup all-purpose, and instead of using 2 eggs I used 3 egg whites. I only used about 1/8 cup of vegetable oil and substituted the rest with applesauce. I ended up using 1/2 cup BROWN sugar, and I used fat-free soymilk instead of regular. Lastly, I added a pinch of extra salt.I baked the cake at 350 for about 33 minutes. The cake came out looking very nice, having a nice texture and tasting great (you could definitely taste the spices, and I'm very glad I added chopped apples and nuts)

This was a BIG hit at my house. The texture is almost custardy it is so moist, and the spices really blend well. My picky sweetie asked what the name of the bread was after his second piece (a good sign) and after his third piece he said he wished he wasn't so full because he wanted to just keep on eating the bread!! That's as good as it gets.

I love this bread. I use walnuts instead of pecans and make a topping of 1/4 cup chopped walnuts, 1/4 cup brown sugar and 1/2 tspn cinnamon. Combine and spread on top of batter in pan before baking. Youi have to cover bread with foil if topping gets too brown due to the long cooking time.

This was an excellent bread. Next time I am going to try some chunky applesauce and I may add a little bit more seasoning because I like a strong cinnamon taste but it was perfect as is too. I will make this again!

I found the perfect recipe to use up some extra applesauce I had in the frig! I made muffins out of this recipe to take into work for a Monday morning treat. I used half white sugar/half light brown sugar, and only a 1/4 cup of oil. You can also use Apple Pie spice, which combines all the spices in this recipe into one.

This recipe didn't come out right for me. I followed it exactly except for I added chopped up apple and walnuts. The batter in the middle didn't cook and I had to throw everything away.

I made this today and its almost gone already! I used chunky applesauce and 1/2 cup of baking splenda in place of the sugar. It smelled fab while it was cooking and I can only imagine how great it would smell if I had baked it in the winter and all the windows were closed! It was a big hit and I will definately make it again! I don't use nuts very often in baking so the absence of them in the ingredient list didn't matter!

I loved the texture and the spices and the moistness of this bread but I agree with one other reviewer...it needed something. I looked at the recipe and 1/4 teas of salt might not be enough to perk up the flavor so next time I try it I'll use 3/4 teas. I also missed the pecans in the recipe so I used about 1 cup and it was great.

I took a reviewer's advice and added some chopped apple, and only used 1/3 cup brown sugar. It was great, despite the fact that the bread didn't rise too much because I ran out of baking soda, oops!

My family has enjoyed this bread recipe for several generations, but we add the following topping to make it 'over the top': Combine 1/4 c. chopped pecans, 1/4 c. brown sugar, 1/2 tsp. cinnamon. Spoon this mixture over the bread before you put it into the oven to bake. This makes a crumbly, bakery-like topping, that adds real pizzazz to this recipe. Hope you enjoy!
