Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with nonstick spray and set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, beat together the eggs, applesauce, sugars, melted butter, and orange zest.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until combined.
Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan and top with coarse sugar.
Bake for 1 hour or until a toothpick comes clean when inserted into the center of the loaf. Allow to cool in the pan.
