- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

This Blender Applesauce Bread is the perfect sweet breakfast pastry, and it could not get any easier (just throw the ingredients in a blender, then pour into a baking dish and bake!).
Instructions
- Cut apple into quarters (apple peel can remain).
- Combine apples and lemon juice and blender and beat until almost smooth (the consistency of chunky applesauce). Set aside 1 cup to use in the recipe.
- Rinse blender and blades with water. Beat together butter and sugar in the blender until combined and thick.
- Add egg, applesauce and vanilla and pulse until combined.
- Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and ginger.
- Add to blender and pulse until flour is just mixed without overbeating (about 5-7 pulses).
- Remove blade, add pecans and fold in gently.
- Add batter to a lightly greased 9-in. x 5-in. loaf pan and bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour or until the bread is firm and a wooden pick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool in the pan for 15 minutes, and then turn out onto a rack to cool completely.
