Applesauce Cinnamon Quick Bread

bridal shower 028

I found these adorable little tiny paper loaf pans at that same store in SLC, “Gygis”, where I found the candy mold.  That place is heaven for people who love all things food like me!  There is a coffee cake that I make which is very cinnamony so I thought I’d make some tiny loaves of cinnamon bread for Cort’s shower.  I found this recipe on a blog called “Lemon Drop”.  The house smelled so heavenly while these little guys were baking, it was awesome!  I haven’t tried one yet so I can’t tell you how they taste but I bet it’s great!  This recipe made 24 mini loaves.

2 1/2 cups flour

2 tablespoons cinnamon

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 egg

1 cup chunky applesauce (I used smooth)

1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar

2/3 cup milk

2 tablespoons oil

1  Preheat oven to 350.

2  Spray large loaf pan with baking spray (the kind with flour).

3  In large bowl, whisk together first 4 ingredients.

4  In medium bowl, whisk together remaining ingredients.

5  Fold wet ingredients into dry ingredients, blending just until combined.

6  Pour into loaf pan and smooth top.

7  Bake 55 – 60 minutes or until toothpicks inserted in center comes out clean.  (My minis only took about 15 – 20 minutes to bake.)

To finish these off, I mixed together powdered sugar and milk until I got a thick glaze then I poured it into a ziploc bag, snipped off a corner and then piped a curvy line on the top of each loaf to pretty it up!)
