Pens June Mullins of Livonia, Missouri, A friend brought a loaf of this bread to a ladies' church meeting at my house. It was still warm from the oven - what a mouthwatering aroma! My family likes the nutty texture and fresh apple flavor. Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter, softened |
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, divided |
2 eggs |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 tablespoons buttermilk |
1 cup grated peeled apple |
1 cup chopped nuts |
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, cream the butter and 1 cup sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk. Stir in apple and nuts.
2. Pour into a greased and floured 9-in. x 5-in. loaf pan. Combine cinnamon and remaining sugar; sprinkle over batter. Bake at 350° for 60-65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes; remove from pan to wire rack to cool completely. Yield: 1 loaf.
