I've loved to cook since my grandmother helped me stand in a chair and fry toast when I was 4. I've been a nurse for 18 years, and my husband and I and our daughter recently moved here to Bristol, Tennessee from Bristol, Virginiathe state line runs down Main Street! Ingredients:
1 cup sugar |
3/4 cup butter, divided |
2 eggs |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/4 cup buttermilk |
2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 cups chopped peeled tart apples |
1/2 cup chopped nuts |
1/2 cup raisins |
1/2 cup packed brown sugar |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, cream sugar and 1/2 cup butter. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each. Add baking soda to buttermilk; add to creamed mixture. Mix in flour and salt. Stir in apples, nuts and raisins. Pour into two greased and floured 8-in. x 4-in. loaf pans. Melt remaining butter; drizzle over loaves. Combine brown sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over loaves. Bake at 350° for 45-50 minutes. Let cool in pans for 10 minutes. Turn out on a wire rack to cool. Slice in 1-1/2-in. pieces to serve. Yield: 2 loaves. |
