Mix together:

2/3 c. oil
3 eggs
2 c. flour
1 c. sugar
1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. baking powder
Then add: 2 c. apples

Pour into 2 greased loaf pans.

Bake at 350°F for 50-55 minutes, until done.

Get your Sour Dough Batter from a friend, or start your own. You can also obtain San Francisco Sourdough Starter in dehydrated form, much as you would purchased active dry yeast.

Mix together in a bowl 1 teaspoon active dry yeast, 1/4 cup warm water, 2 tablespoons sugar, 1 tablespoon vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt and 1 cup all-purpose flour.

Cover and let stand 2-3 days. It will become bubbly and will have a sour but pleasant odor, much like a pizza shop or bread bakery.

Separate into 3 portions and give 2 of them away to friends.
