Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Set aside.
In another medium-sized bowl, whisk together the unsweetened applesauce, eggs, milk, Splenda granular, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix. The batter will be thick.
Fold in the dried mixed fruit and chopped nuts until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve slices as is or spread with butter or cream cheese. Store leftover bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days, or freeze for longer storage.
