How to Make Apple Loaf

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter or margarine (or a combination of 1/2 cup butter/margarine and 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce) and 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. Gently fold in 3 cups peeled and shredded apples.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top is browning too quickly, tent loosely with foil.
  9. Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
