Recipe--Apple Bread


Many of our favorite fall foods revolve around apples! Every year, we love going to the orchard and picking a bushel of apples and then turning those apples into treats! One of our favorite desserts is apple bread. Make sure you try it while the apples are in season! Here is the recipe:

Apple Bread


3 eggs, lightly beaten
2 cups sugar
½ cup oil
1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
4 cups chopped apples
1 cup chopped walnuts
2 Tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Grease and flour 2 loaf pans. Combine the eggs, sugar, oil and vanilla. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and cinnamon. Stir dry mixture into wet mixture, until mixed. Stir in the apples and walnuts. (You might need to finish mixing this with your hands.) Divide into 2 pans. Mix together sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Sprinkle on top of the loaves. Bake at 325°F for 1 hour and 10 minutes, or until ready. Cool 10 minutes before removing from pan. Cool completely before slicing. Freezes well. Enjoy!
