Apple Bread

This is one of my favorite breads.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups flour
• 2 tsp. baking powder
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1/2 tsp. soda
• 1/4 cup walnuts
• 1/2 cup shortening
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 2 eggs
• 2 Tbsp. milk
• 1 cup chopped apples
• 1/2 tsp. vanilla

Directions:

Sift flour, baking powder, soda and salt into a bowl. Add nuts and mix well. Cream shortening and sugar; add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add remaining ingredients. Stir just enough to blend; add apples. Spoon into a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees F for 1 hour.
