Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350. Grease and flour two 81/2x41/2 loaf pans and set aside. In a large bowl, combine the oil, sugar and eggs. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, salt and baking soda. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet, mixing well after each addition.
Fold in the apples, nuts and vanilla. Pour into the loaf pans and bake at 350 for about 1 1/2 hours or until a toothpick inserted in the loaves comes out clean. Turn out of the pan while still slightly warm (wait 20-30 minutes) and let cool.
