Amish Friendship Bread

Toni Fox passed this on to me when Daniel and Mindy were in middle school. Throughout the years I forgot about it until it surfaced again from Beekeeper friends Renee Warren and Charlene Potter. Enjoy! (p.s. I passed one back to Toni Fox)

Yum!

I substituted applesauce for the sugar when I made the bread. Also, I used a cup of pecans since I love nuts.
