Fooberry Bread

Category: Cooking
Posted on: November 26, 2008 2:18 PM, by Blake Stacey

These little "cold and flu multi-symptom relief" pills have left me far too placid to deal with the Internet. I updated a recent post with an addendum, but that seems to be about all I can accomplish today. Oh, well. Instead of the snark I would have unloaded on incidental and unworthy targets, here's a recipe! I will be cooking this tomorrow morning.

FOOBERRY BREAD

2 eggs
1 cup oil
2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 cups applesauce
2 cups self-rising flour
1 cup wheat germ — and you thought only Wonko the Sane cooked with wheat germ.
In excess of 1 cup blueberries, raspberries, cranberries, chopped strawberries and/or other fruit of a similar nature.

Grease and flour two loaf pans. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Mix eggs, oil, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and applesauce. Add flour and wheat germ and mix well. Fold in the fruit. Pour batter into pans. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.

The self-rising part is important, since this particular bread is fairly thick and cake-ish. Adding baking powder to general-purpose flour should work as well.

Hi, Blake! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!

Just thought I'd let you know that I was on the radio with the mayor of Fresno (TV actor Alan Autry), debating evolution and such. You can check out my action here.
