Cranberry Apple Bread

I've been on an apple kick lately. I rarely used to eat them unless they were part of another dish, but I've found the PA grown Gala apples to be incredibly tasty this year. I could easily eat one or more a day.

Since there is nothing special about sharing how to cut up an apple with you, I went in search of a recipe and came across this one.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup all purpose flour
• ½ cup whole wheat flour
• ¾ cup sugar
• 1 ½ tsp. baking powder
• 1 tsp. cinnamon
• ½ tsp. salt
• ½ tsp. baking soda
• 2 eggs
• ¼ cup milk
• 2 tbsp. canola oil
• 2 cups apples, peeled and chopped 
• 1 cup fresh cranberries

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350. Spray a 9x4 loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl combine the flours, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, salt and baking soda.
3. In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk and canola oil. Stir into the dry ingredients with a wooden spoon until just mixed.
4. Fold the apples and cranberries until combined. Transfer into the prepared loaf pan.
5. Bake for 1 hour. Let cool for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to continue cooling.

The sweetness of the apple and the tartness of the cranberries really pair so nicely together in this bread.
