Yummy Apple Bread

Comments:
Most quick breads are loaded with nuts,but not this one. You will be surprised how much clearer the sweet, fruity flavor of apple comes through.

1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
3 eggs, beaten
3 cups shredded, peeled cooking apples, (4 medium size apples)
2 cups granulated sugar
2/3 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Grease and flour three 7 1/2 x 3 1/2 x2-inch or two 8 x 4x 2-inch loaf pans. Set aside. In a medium bowl combine flour, soda, salt, cinnamon, and baking powder; set aside.

In a large bowl combine eggs, apples, sugar, oil, and vanilla. Stir in flour mixture just until moistened. Pour batter into prepared pans. Bake in a 325 degree F (160 C) oven for 45 to 55 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans on wire racks for 10 minutes. Remove from pans.
