This is a nice quick read and an excellent snack. Especially during the cooler seasons
when you may more like baking.

## Ingredients

 * 4 Granny Smith apple, grated
 * 1 ¾ granulated sugar
 * 2-ounce raisins
 * 1 tsp vanilla extract
 * 2 eggs
 * 3 cups all-purpose flour
 * 1 tbsp baking powder
 * ½ tsp baking soda
 * 1 tsp ground cinnamon
 * ½ cup whole pecans, for garnish

## Preparation Directions

 * Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
 * Combine grated apple and sugar in a medium bowl, give a quick stir, and set aside
   15 minutes. Apple will be watery. This is what we’re looking for.
 * In a separate bowl, add raisins, vanilla extract, and eggs. Mix until just combined.
 * In a different large-sized bowl, add in flour, baking powder, baking soda, and
   cinnamon, whisk until incorporated.
 * Add apple mixture to egg mixture and give a quick stir. Then add in dry ingredients.
   Mix with a hand mixer or hand whisk just until combine, do not overmix. Transfer
   to the prepared loaf pan
 * Bake in the oven for 1 hour to 1 hour-15 minutes, start checking at 1 hour. When
   a wooden toothpick inserted comes out clean, remove from the oven and let cool
   for 15 minutes before take out from the pan.

## Servings

 * Makes 9” x 5” loaf pan—about 9 (1 inch) servings
