Total time:
- 1¾ cups flour, I used whole wheat flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 4 slices of thick bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 1 cup peeled and cut Granny Smith apple, about one small apple
- ¾ cup sharp shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ cup almonds toasted and chopped
- 1 teaspoon of finely chopped fresh rosemary
- 3 large eggs
- ⅓ cup milk
- ⅓ cup oil
- Shortening to grease the pan
- First you need to pre-heat the oven to 350 F
- Using a whisk combine the flour, salt, baking powder and cayenne pepper in a large bowl and set aside.
- In a medium bowl mix the bacon, apple, cheese, almonds and rosemary and set aside.
- Whisk together in a small bowl the eggs, milk, and oil.
- Now add the egg mixture to the flour mixture and stir only until dry ingredients are moistened.
- Add the bacon and stir just until combined. You don't want to over mix.
- Pour the batter into a greased and floured 8½ x 4½ loaf pan.
- Bake for about one hour covering with aluminum foil the last 15 minutes to prevent excessive browning.
- Let cool for 10 minutes and then remove from pan and let cool another 30 minutes until slicing.
