I used to bottle a lot of apricots so my mother, Joan Olsen, sent me this recipe to try. If you like apricots you will be sure to love this bread.
1 bottle apricots, drain and save syrup
½ c. shortening
2 eggs, beaten
3 TBS orange juice
2 c. flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
½ c. walnuts
2/3 c. sugar
Puree apricots in blender and add enough syrup to measure 1 cup. Cream together sugar, shortening and beaten eggs. Add orange juice and apricots. Add flour, baking powder, soda, salt, and nuts. Mix well. Pour into greased and floured loaf pan. Bake 350 for 40 to 45 minutes. Makes 1 loaf.
These are great American recipes from many years of gathering recipes. All of them have been tried and tested. I hope you enjoy them as much as I have.
