Apple Bread

Here is another good for using Fall apples. I got this from another Forum Friend on another Forum.

Apple Bread (makes (2) 8" x 4" x 2" loaves)

3 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
3 beaten eggs
3 cups shredded, peeled apples (about 4 medium to large apples)
2 cups white sugar
2/3 cup cooking oil
1 teaspoon vanilla

Grease loaf pans.

In a medium bowl combine flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and baking powder. Set aside.

In a large bowl combine eggs, shredded apples, sugar, oil and vanilla. Add the flour mixture to egg mixture. Stir just until moistened (batter should be lumpy). Spoon into loaf pans.

Bake at 325* for 45 to 55 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted near center comes out clean. Cool and remove from pan.

Best after refrigerated overnight. I used part whole wheat flour and it never hurt it at all. I think I will add
raisins and nuts the next time. I also think you could substitute light olive oil. I have done that with other recipes.
