Apple Bread – Quick and Easy!


1/2 cup canola oil
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 large egg
2 cups sifted unbleached flour
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 Tablespoons milk
1/2 cup raisins
2 large apples finely chopped (Use good baking apples)
1/2 cup walnuts chopped - nut allergen alert –

Glaze – optional:
1/2 cup powdered sugar, sifted
1 Tablespoon water
2 Tablespoons melted butter

1. Combine oil, sugar, and vanilla. Cream until light and fluffy.

2. Add eggs and beat well. Sift together flour, cinnamon, salt, and baking powder.

3. Add milk, raisins, apples, nuts, and dry ingredients to mixture and stir only until flour is well dampened.

4. Bake in well-greased 9 x 5 x 4 inch loaf pan at 350 degrees for 50 to 60 minutes. Cool; remove from pan.

5. Combine glaze ingredients; mix well and pour over loaf. Let glaze set before wrapping loaf tightly. Best if made day prior to serving.

6. If turning into sticks – preheat oven to 200-250F and cut the bread into stick-like slices. Place the slices on a baking sheet and allow the sticks to bake for approx. 2 hours or until hard and crunchy.

We have substituted the following for the apples:

Blueberries (1 cup)

Peaches (1 1/2 cup fresh sliced thin)

Carrots (1 1/2 cup shredded)
