  • 2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup, plus 1 tablespoon, granulated sugar
  • 1 cup applesauce

  • 1/2 cup canola oil
  • 3 tablespoon milk
  • 1 1/2 cup walnut halves

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F. Grease two two 8 1/2-by-4 1/2-inch loaf pans.
  2. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon in a large bowl. Mix 1 cup granulated sugar with applesauce, eggs, oil and milk in a small bowl; add to flour mixture and mix well. Stir in walnuts.
  3. Spoon into pans. Mix brown sugar with the remaining 1 tablespoon granulated sugar, and sprinkle evenly over tops of loaves.
