Apricot Bread

This recipe card is stained, so you know it was a good one. The apricot bread was made with Grape Nuts cereal, which gave it a lovely bit of texture.  It was especially good made with ripe, fresh-off-the-tree, Central Valley apricots. I've yet to find even a farmer's market apricot that has that intense apricot flavor that this recipe needs.  If you're lucky enough to have an apricot tree in your life, enjoy!  And send me a slice. 

1 3/4 C flour

3/4 C grape nuts cereal

1 C sugar

1 tsp salt

2/3 C chopped apricots

2 1/2 tsps b. powder

1 1/4 C milk

2 tbsps oil

1 egg, well beaten

Mix flour, b. powder, sugar, + salt.  Stir in cereal + apricots.  Blend milk, egg, + oil.  Add flour mixture. Stir till just moist.  Pour into greased loaf pan + bake at 350 for 1 hr or until done.  Cool in pan 10 mins.
