Applesauce Bread
Modified from Taste of Home

1/3 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1 1/4 cups applesauce (I used unsweetened)
1 1/2 cups flour
3/4 tsp baking soda
3/4 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/8 tsp cloves
1/2 cups raisins (I see these at optional...I did a loaf plain and it was great)
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped (I see these at optional...I did a loaf plain and it was great)

In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add the egg and applesauce, mix well. Combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon, baking powder, salt, nutmeg and cloves. Stir into creamed mixture just until moistened. Fold in raisins and nuts.

Pour into a greased loaf pan. Bake at 350 for 60-65 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
