I save time, use less oil and have moister results when I add jars of baby food fruit to my quick breads. This recipe is a big help if company is coming and you want to make bread for dinner or to have with coffee. —JoAnn Lee of Accord, New York

I replaced 3/4 c of flour with 3/4 c oatmeal, used Splenda for baking instead of sugar. Turned out delicious and more fiber and only sugar is in the topping. Very good and healthier.

also, i did not use baby food. i used a real apple and some apple cider to make it moister.
