Whole Wheat Apple and Green Tomato Bread: Pure and Simple

Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 3/4 cup applesauce
- 1 3/4 cup chopped green tomato (or substitute apple) 1/4 inch dice
- 2 tablespoons apple cider
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon grated fresh nutmeg
- 2 1/4 cups King Arthur White Whole Wheat Flour
- 1 cup raisins, golden or dark
- 3/4 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a large loaf pan or two small pans.
- Beat the butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg; scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl, and beat until smooth.
- Beat in the applesauce and cider.
- Stir in the baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and flour, mixing until well-combined.
- Stir in the green tomatoes (apples) raisins and nuts.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top. Use large enough loaf pan so batter is no more than 2/3 to 3/4 full for more even baking and to prevent over browning.
- Bake the bread for 60 to 70 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove the bread from the oven, and after 10 minutes turn it out of the pan onto a rack to cool. When completely cool, wrap tightly in plastic, and store at room temperature. The loaf will remain fresh for several days; for longer storage, freeze.
Notes
- The texture and flavor of this loaf are improved by a rest after baking. Wrap the completely cool loaf in plastic, and set it aside for several hours, or overnight (if you can wait that long I couldn't).
