- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 2 large eggs, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
- Stir in 1 cup unsweetened applesauce, 1/2 cup buttermilk, and 2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in 1 cup raisins and 1/2 cup chopped pecans.
- Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
