A Sweet Treat You Won't Feel Guilty About!

For the final recipe this week, we chose a recipe that has been made healthier by slightly altering the original ingredients rather than swapping them out altogether. This delicious Spiced Applesauce treats you to the nostalgic holiday tastes of cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice. By taking out half a stick of butter, substituting 2 egg whites for each of the whole eggs, and using sugar substitute instead of sugar, this iteration of the bread has all the flavor with less calories and cholesterol.

 

Ingredients:

1 ¼ cups applesauce

1 cup Stevia baking sugar

½ cup vegetable oil

4 egg whites

3 Tbsp milk

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking soda

½ tsp baking powder

½ tsp ground cinnamon

¼ tsp ground nutmeg

¼ tsp ground allspice

¼ tsp salt

½ cup chopped pecans

 

Directions:

Preheat your air fryer oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease the baking pan.

In a large bowl, combine the applesauce, sugar, oil, eggs, and milk; beat well. Sift in the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and salt; stir until smooth. Fold in the in pecans. Pour batter into prepared pan.

Bake in preheated Air Fryer Oven for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
