Ingredients

The following ingredients have 10 Servings
  • 1/4 cup butter (melted)
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1 cup sugar (divided)
  • 2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1-1/4 teaspoons baking soda
  • 5 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 11 tablespoons milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup shortening (melted)

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and generously grease a standard-size loaf pan (9¼" x 5¼" x 2¾").
  • Combine the melted butter, walnuts, cinnamon, and 1/2 cup of the sugar in a bowl. Mix well and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar, flour, salt, and baking soda.
  • Place the apple cider vinegar (5 Tbsp) in a measuring cup and fill with the milk to the 1-cup mark (11 Tbsp).
  • In a medium bowl, beat the eggs and whisk in the vinegar-milk mixture. Gradually add the melted shortening, then add the entire mixture to the dry ingredients. Combine well.
  • Give the walnut-cinnamon mixture a stir, then fold it into the batter, swirling it through, but not combining completely.
  • Spread the batter in the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then finish cooling on a rack.
