My kids love pancakes for breakfast and since they are so quick and easy to whip up, they are a regular go-to breakfast at our house. They also freeze wonderfully if you have leftovers you want to save for another day.
To bake this applesauce bread I used my home canned spiced applesauce which has cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg in it. I left out the cinnamon in the recipe so that it wasn’t too strong in the finished product. I also used an extra egg, as the eggs our chickens are laying are a bit on the small side.

Gardening and preserving is a great way to provide food for our families throughout the year.
