Vegan Apple Pecan Bread Pudding

I made this bread pudding dessert for our dinner party last night. Served hot from the oven and was delicious with vanilla ice cream!

Ingredients/Supplies
8x4x2 bread pan
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup honey
1 medium apple, skinned and coarsely grated
1 medium apple, skinned and chopped into 1/4 inch cubes
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon alspice
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1 mashed banana
1/2 cup soymilk
1 cup crumbled pecans

Preparation
-Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
-Combine wet ingredients in a bowl: oil, honey, soymilk, mashed bannana, grated apple
-Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl: flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon, alspice
-Pour wet mixture into dry mixture bowl and whisk together well
-Fold in crumbled pecans and chopped apple
-Pour batter into pan, about 3/4 full (you don't want it to overflow in the oven!)
-Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the edges are dark brown. The middle will still look uncooked. Pull the pan out of the oven and let it cool a bit. Spoon out the bready edges and the mushy middle into a bowl and mix together. Tastes great with Vanilla ice cream or Vanilla soy cream.
