Christmas Recipe Applesauce Nut Bread

I first baked this recipe for Christmas in 1978. The recipe was snipped from the local newspaper.

Applesauce Nut Bread
1 cup sugar
1 cup applesauce
1/4 cup vegetable oil
3 egg whites
3 tablespoons milk
2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted before measuring
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts

In a large mixing bowl combine sugar, applesauce, oil, egg whites, and milk; mix until well blended. Into another bowl, sift flour, soda, baking powder, salt, and spices. Stir into the first mixture until well blended; stir in chopped pecans or walnuts. Spread batter in a greased and floured 9x5x3-inch loaf pan.Bake at 350° for 60 minutes, or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean.
