Made this to share, along with other finger foods, with a group I host, & they were pleasantly surprised when they saw the nutritional info since I'd set out the recipe as well! I included homemade applesauce & did increase the amount of cinnamon just a little! A VERY NICE TASTING BREAD! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in the current Pick A Chef]
