How to Make Two Grain Cranberry Applesauce Bread

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan, or line with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 2 large eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups rolled oats (reserve 2 tablespoons for topping), 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 cup whole wheat flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon ground cloves.
  5. Stir in 1 cup dried cranberries and ½ cup chopped pecans.
  6. In a separate bowl, prepare 1 cup unsweetened applesauce.
  7. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the applesauce, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  8. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  9. Sprinkle the reserved 2 tablespoons of rolled oats over the top.
  10. Bake for 65-75 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  11. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
