Pumpkin Bread

In addition to pumpkin spice lattes, I love pumpkin bread (and all other sweet breads :). I tried a new recipe yesterday and it's definitely a keeper!

1/2 c butter, softened
1 c white sugar
1 c brown sugar
1/2 c unsweetened applesauce
3 eggs
2 c wheat flour
1 c all purpose flour
1 T baking powder
1 1/2 t baking soda
2 t ground cinnamon
3/4 t ground cloves
1 1/2 t ground nutmeg
1 15 oz can of pumpkin
cinnamon and sugar mixture for dusting

In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add applesauce and eggs; mix well. Combine dry ingredients; stir into creamed mixture just until moistened. Stir in pumpkin. Pour into two greased 9 x 5 loaf pans. Sprinkle tops with cinnamon and sugar mixture. Bake at 350 for 1 hour or until bread tests done.
