Original recipe yields 2 - 8x4 inch loaves

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 8x4 inch loaf pans. In a small mixing bowl, cover the raisins with hot water; let stand for 10 minutes and drain. Sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon, set aside.
In a large bowl, combine apple juice, egg and oil; beat until well mixed, then stir in the applesauce. Gradually stir in the sifted ingredients until smooth. Add the drained raisins; mixing just enough to evenly distribute. Pour the batter into the prepared pans.
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. Cool loaf in the pan for 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

"Generally speaking, this made a great tasting, relatively low calorie loaf and one that was easy to put together. The only problem that I had was that it seemed more appropriate for one 8 X 4-inch pan..." See more rather than two. The loaves were only about 1 3/4-inches high but the texture was fine."

"This recipe was really good. Not as sweet as I would have liked. I'm also, not a very big rasin fan, so I substituted the rasins with dried apples. I chopped the apples up, and followed the directions..." See more as if they were rasins. I also doubled the batch, which made it perfect for three 8x4in pans."

"This is a lovely recipe for simple, quick and relatively fool-proof apple bread. I used only all-purpose flour (I didn't have any rye), but other than that I followed the original exactly and it came..." See more out great! It has a nice moist, tender texture, and was not crumbly or dense. The original recipe tastes fine, but you can vary the spice/sugar and add-ins depending on your taste. I took a few loaves to work and everyone raved."
