CANDIED FRUIT BREAD

(from New Life Bible Church Women’s recipe box)

Categories: BREADS

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Flour
  • 3/4 cup Sugar
  • 4 teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 cup Candied Pineapple
  • 1/2 cup Candied Cherries
  • 1/2 to 1 cup Walnuts, optional
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 cup Milk
  • 1/4 cup Butter (melted) or Oil

Directions

  1. Note: Using 1/2 cup each of the Candied Pineapple and Candied Cherries will make it more of a bread with “fruit highlights.” I prefer to use more of the candied fruit so that it is less bread and more fruity.

  2. In large bowl measure in flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, candied pineapple, and candied cherries. Stir thoroughly. Make a well in center.

  3. In small bowl beat eggs until frothy. Mix in milk and melted butter (or oil). Pour into well. Stir just to moisten.

  4. Pour into greased 9×5×3 inch loaf pan.

  5. Bake at 350 for about 1 hour. Let cool in pan on a wire rack 10 minutes, then remove.
