3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup granulated sugar, ½ cup vegetable oil, ½ cup milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
5. Fold in 2 cups peeled and chopped apples, 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans, and ½ cup shredded coconut.
6. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.
7. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
8. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the top of the batter.
9. Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
10. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
