Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup butter, at room temperature
• 1 (21 ounce) can apple filling

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.

Step 2

Break up apples in filling in a medium bowl using a potato masher; set aside. Cream butter, white sugar, and brown sugar together in a large bowl; stir in apple filling, eggs, and vanilla extract until well blended. Sift flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt together in a separate bowl; stir into apple mixture, then stir in raisins and walnuts. Pour batter into the prepared pan.

Step 3

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into center of loaf comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
