Apple Bread - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 1/2 lbs apples, peeled and chopped
1/2 lb raisins
5 1/4 ounces hazelnuts
1/2 lb brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon clove
1 tablespoon cocoa, unsweetened
1 cup rum, brown
1 lb all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 pinch salt
Preparation
-
In the evening, mix all ingredients except flour, baking powder and salt, combine thoroughly and let stand overnight.
In the morning, there will be a lot of liquid. Mix in flour, baking powder and salt, mix very well and pour into greased and floured loaf pan.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and bake the bread for one hour. As there a re so many apples in it, the wooden toothpick trick will not work, the bread is way too moist. So you have to watch and eyeball a bit after one hour whether it really is done or not. I've never baked it longer than one hour, though, and it always turned out done.
Remove pan from oven and cut around the rim of the pan to prevent bread from sticking. Let cool in the pan, then carefully remove it.
If using non stick baking paper to line the pan, you can also carefully lift the bread out of the pan immediately and eat it warm, which is delicious with some vanilla ice cream :).
