I have been meaning to try out a dessert loaf for a while now, as I used to make them when I was younger but it has been quite sometime. I received a ton of delicious apples from a BC orchard in my harvest box this week, so I decided to make this the featured fruit of my comeback loaf. I’m not a fan of dry and crumbly cakes, so I made this version nice and moist and it was pretty gosh darn delicious.
I had to send Richard to work with the remainder after I had a couple of pieces out of fear that I would eat the entire thing.
Apple Loaf
1½ cups flour
1tsp cinnamon
1 tsp baking soda
¼ cup brown sugar
½ cup granulated sugar
2 large apples (or 4 small) – peeled and grated
½ cup vegetable oil
2 eggs – beaten
1. Preheat oven to 350º. Mix all the dry ingredients in a bowl. In a separate bowl mix the remaining ingredients.
2. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add wet ingredients. Mix well.
3. Pour mixture into a greased loaf pan. Bake for 50 mins, or until toothpick comes out clean.
Makes approximately 12 servings
