Apple Bread recipe from AM & Egg

Here's the apple bread recipe I found, from "Beard on Bread":

1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 cups flour
1/2 t salt
1/2 t baking soda
1 t double-acting baking powder ( this is normal in the US, but in Japan they might also have single-acting )
2T buttermilk or sour milk (2T milk plus 1 t vinegar)
1 cup apples, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts or pecans
1t vanilla or grated lemon rind

Cream butter and sugar until light and lemon colored
Beat in the eggs
Sift flower with salt, baking soda and baking powder
Add to the creamed mixture alternately with milk, beginning and ending with dry indigents
Stir in the apples, nuts and vanilla
Grease a loaf pan
Spoon in the batter and bake in a 350°, preheated oven
Bake 50-60 mins, until the loaf pulls away slightly from the sides of the pan or until a straw inserted in the loaf comes out clean

Cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then loosen and turn out onto a rack to cool completely before slicing

Have fun!

Love,
Emmanuel ( and AM)
