  • 2 large apples*
  • 3/4 cup sugar white or brown
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil for example Canola oil
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract optional

  • ½ cup raisins

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°. Grease and flour an 8×4-inch loaf pan.
  • Quarter and core the apple and grate them on the large holes of a box grater. You should have about 2 cups of grated apple.
  • In a large bowl, mix the shredded apples with sugar, oil, egg, and vanilla extract.
  • In a medium bowl mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
  • If you are using nuts and/or raisins add them to the dry ingredients.

If you have two loaf pan, you can easily double the recipe.
