Apple Walnut Cake/Bread

I baked this recipe in a bundt pan thinking that it would turn out more like a cake, but it ended up very dense like a flavored bread.  At least, that's the way I thought.  My husband, on the other hand, said it was more cake-like.  So, I've added this recipe to both the bread and dessert sections.  Bread or cake,  THIS THING IS DELICIOUS!!!

First of all, I found this recipe on allrecipes: Pol's Apple Cake, but I changed it a bit - adding a few more ingredients and leaving out the coconut.  If you'd like to see the original recipe, you can click on the link above.  Here on this page, I'm going to post the version that I made.

Apple Walnut Bread
3 eggs

1 1/4 cups vegetable oil

1 tsp vanilla

2 cups white sugar

2 1/2 cups all purpose flour

2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp salt

2 tsp cinnamon

1 pinch (less than 1/4 tsp) nutmeg

2 apples - peeled and chopped

1 cup chopped walnuts

1.) Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Grease and flour a bundt pan or loaf pan.

2.) Blend eggs, oil, vanilla and sugar until creamy.

3.) In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg.

4.) Add flour mixture, a little at a time. Blend well. Batter will be very thick - almost like cookie dough.

5.) Fold in apples and nuts.

6.) Pour or spread batter into prepared pan. Bake in preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool 30 minutes in pan, then remove.  

*Note - the orginial recipe mentioned at the top of this post also had a topping/frosting made of butter, brown sugar and milk.  Since I was making this to use as a breakfast bread, I didn't use the topping.
