Aunt Shirley’s Apple Bread

Posted by Sharon Crosheck

This recipe is from my Great Aunt Shirley. It’s always a hit at brunch.

BREAD:
1/2 C. oleo (margarine), softened
1 C. sugar
2 eggs
2 T. milk
1 tsp. vanilla
2 C. flour
1 tsp. soda
1/2 tsp. salt
2 C. chopped apples

TOPPING:
2 T. butter
3 T. sugar
3 T. flour
1 tsp. cinnamon

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease loaf pan.
  2. Cream oleo, sugar, and eggs. Mix in milk and vanilla.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine flour, soda, and salt.
  4. Gradually add flour mixture to egg mixture. Mix in apples.
  5. Put bread dough in pan.
  6. Mix topping ingredients and place on top of bread dough before baking.
  7. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until toothpick tests clean.

This can be modified to be a little more healthy – at home I use half whole wheat flour and 2/3 to 3/4 cup sugar.
