Apple Cranberry Bread

Recipe by Phyllis Schmalz, Kansas City, Kansas, Taste of Home's Quick Cooking, November/December 2002 (Vol 5 No 6)

Cranberries lend a burst of tart flavor and bright color to this bread. Dotted with crunchy nuts, slices of the moist loaf are good for breakfast with a cup of coffee or as a snack anytime of the day.

(CMN: This either needs more sugar or use craisins instead. It was too tart!)

Ingredients:
2 eggs
3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons canola oil -- or vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups apples -- peeled and chopped, (use tart apples)
1 cup cranberries -- fresh or frozen
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Directions:
In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs, sugar and oil. Combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda and salt; add to egg mixture just until combined (batter will be very thick). Stir in the apples, cranberries and walnuts.

Transfer to an 8-in. x 4-in. x 2-in. loaf pan coated with nonstick cooking spray. Bake at 350° for 60-65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing the pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
