Homemade Applesauce Cranberry Bread Recipe
Hi friends! Are you ready for something DELICIOUS today! I sure hope so!!!
Since I’m working on my personal goal of 30 days of thanks this fall season, I recently decided that any baking I do this month, will be passed on to someone else.
Recently I made this delicious Applesauce Cranberry Bread and hand delivered the loaves to the cops at the base gate. I’m guessing by the huge smile on the receiving guy’s face, I pretty much made their day. Which in turn, totally made my day.
Below is the easy recipe so you make AND SHARE this delicious treat with friends & family today! If you are inspired to recreate a few loaves today, come share your thoughts of it on our Facebook page! #gluedtomycrafts

Make It Your Own Today – If you use fresh cranberries in your applesauce cranberry bread, the loaves might be a bit tart for some people. You can easily substitute with half dried cranberries and then half fresh cranberries instead, for a different flavor profile!

Of course! You can place the batter in any type of baking dish. Just cut down the time/keep an eye on them so they don’t overbake – Stacey

Can this recipe be made into muffins?

Hi Nesreen – I’ve never worked with a bread machine before, so I can’t exactly say if you can use my recipe and get the same result. Maybe try looking on Google or Pinterest for a bread machine recipe instead? Sorry I’m not much help! – Stacey
Nesreen says
Hi
Thanks for the recipe, can I use the bread machine for this
Stacey says
Hi Paula – I’ve never used whole wheat flour in my baking so I can’t say for sure. Sorry! You might just have to give it a try and see :-) -Stacey
Paula says
Can I use whole wheat flour instead?

Melanie Doyal says
How many mini loaves does this make?
Sandra says
I had the same problem…I used metal pans…the center was still wettish….I cooked it for 70 minutes…have you made it again?
Melanie says
What pan are you using?
You could also try to lower the temperature and cook a tad longer. Also covering with foil could help too
(I make bread 3-5 times a week)
Wendy Gerlock says
What is the secret for baking loafs, banana, cranberry, etc. and not having burned sides and bottom?
I have tried everything, the rest of the loaf is fine but to get the middle baked is a problem. Any advice?
