Cinnamon Raisin Quick Bread

At first I thought a bread made entirely with whole wheat flour might be too heavy, but I was totally surprised. Each slice was light and fluffy with the healthful taste of whole grain goodness. It’s made with whole wheat flour, tons of plump raisins, maple syrup for sweetness and a whole cup of apple sauce which helps make it delectably moist!
