Best new bread recipe


Yesterday I put the finishing touches on a new recipe for Apple, Raisin, and Pecan bread.  The product is so good that I literally ate almost the entire loaf by myself, so good in fact that my wife ate some and she does not normally eat the breads.  So here it is:

Yield: 2 loaves

Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, softened
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 tablespoons buttermilk
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 green apples diced
1/2 cup pecans, chopped
1/2 cup raisins
1 tablespoon butter or 1 tablespoon margarine, melted
1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions:
1.  Cream ½ cup butter, gradually adding sugar; beat until light and fluffy.
2.  Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
3.  Dissolve soda in buttermilk; add to batter, mixing well.
4.  Stir in flour with a large spoon.
5.  Add vanilla, and stir well with large spoon.
6.  Stir in apples, Pecans and raisins.
7.  With a basting brush lightly coat bread pans with applesauce then sprinkle with all-purpose flour.
8.  Spoon mixture into the 2 prepped loaf pans.
9.  Drizzle melted butter over loaves.
10.  Combine brown sugar and cinnamon; stir well, and sprinkle over loaves.
11. Bake at 350 for about 40-45 minutes.
12. Cool in pan 5 minutes; turn out on wire rack.

You can make half for one loaf but I fully recommend that you make two the first time because it will disappear very quickly.
