Since I went a little overboard on my recent trip to the orchard and now have enough apples to put a pie on every windowsill in the country, I've been trying out some new apple recipes (A girl can only eat so much applesauce, ya know?) I made this fo rmy Monday night Church group and I was pleased with the outcome. Very easy, very moist and very yummy when served warm. I doubled the recipe and put it an extra egg, and baked it in two loaf pans.
