Ingredients:

- 2 2/3 cups flour

- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda

- 1 teaspoon salt

- 1 tablespoon spice mix (I use cinnamon, clove, alspice, candied ginger, orange rind)

- 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar

- 1 cup vegetable oil

- 4 eggs, beaten

- 2 teaspoons vanilla

- 2 cups mixed apples, grated

- 2 cups mixed apples, processed

- 1 cup raisins, dried dates, dried currants, processed together with apples

- 1 cup chopped pecans, processed together with apples

- can add some sweet wine and/or honey to food processor to help puree the apples, dried fruit and nuts

Preparation:

In a bowl, combine flour, baking soda, salt, and spices. In a mixing bowl, combine sugar and oil. Beat in eggs and vanilla, then stir in chopped apples, raisins, and pecans. Add the dry ingredients and mix until well blended. Grease 2 9x5-inch loaf pans and line bottoms with waxed paper. Greased waxed paper. Pour batter into pans, smoothing the top with a spatula or spoon. Bake for 60-70 minutes at 325°, or until a wooden pick or cake tester inserted in center comes out clean.

Yep, although they were processed with the nuts and raisins/dates, so it was pretty pasty.
