This was fantastic! I did wind up adding more applesauce because the batter seemed dry.

Like others suggested, I used 1 cup of unsweetened applesauce and added 1 cup of mashed banana and more cinnamon & vanilla (personal preference). Omitted topping but sprinkled mini chocolate chips on top -- might add to batter next time! Preferred this to the first one which I made by directions -- good but not as moist!

I used Splenda in place of the sugar to lower the calories and doubled the apple sauce to increase the moisture. It was wonderful and will be my go-to recipe for left over apples!

I make this bread often, I usually double the amount of apple sauce for a more moist bread. It never last long in our house.

I absolutely loved this recipe, no one knew it was a healthier version and it freezes so well too.

This bread turned out quite yummy, but I had to put more applesauce in and even dump in some buttermilk too because the batter was so dry! In the end it was very good though.

I have made this recipe numerous times and it has always turned out delicious. I do leave the nuts out of the topping, but other than that, I don't change a thing!
