'New Year's Eve Party Hostess Gift'


Applesauce Bread
Hello everyone, 
Hope you're ready for the party tonight.  Sweetheart
 and I are going to a New Year's Eve party
 and I wanted to bring the hostess a gift.
 I was so  blessed, because last week a dear friend gave me this jar of homemade applesauce. Thanks Kim. 
Along with the wonderful applesauce was a delicious recipe for Applesauce Bread. Yum...
I love the raffia ribbon and the buffalo check jar cover.
Look at the nice chunks of apple in the applesauce. 
Here is the Printable recipe for
Kim's best ever Applesauce Bread

1/3 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1 1/4 cup applesauce
1 1/2 cup flour
3/4 teaspoon each - cinnamon, baking soda
1/2 teaspoon each - baking powder, salt, ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1. cream together butter and sugar
2. add egg, mix well then fold in applesauce
3. in a separate bowl, combine all dry ingredients
4. add dry ingredients to creamed mixture until moistened
5. pour batter into a greased loaf pan
6. bake at 350 degrees for 60-65 minutes or until a toothpick 
inserted near the center comes out clean.
7. cool in pan for 10 minutes before removing to cool on a wire rack
* You can use an electric mixer to cream butter, sugar and egg, but
the rest should be done by hand to avoid pureeing the chunky applesauce 
makes 1 loaf...
Thanks Kim
*************************************
I baked the applesauce bread and delicious it is...
Time to wrap my delicious applesauce bread in a decorative way.  
I found a delightful Victorian image on 'The Graphics Fairy' website and printed it out. I trimmed the photo with scalloped craft scissors and found some twine and Ta Da my bread was ready to be delivered to our hostess  

This bread is so delicious and moist. 
Delicious with cream cheese, butter and/or Pomegranate jelly
Everyone loves apples
I love the chunky apple pieces and the spices make the bread even more  delicious

Have a safe and happy New Year's Eve
