This delicious, moist bread is chock full of fruit, fiber and flavor. It’s
a great holiday bread.
Preheat oven to 350F.
Lightly oil a 4 x 8: loaf pan or spray with nonstick spray.
In a large bowl, combine both flours, baking power, baking soda, and
cinnamon. Mix well. Add apricots, figs, raisins, and nuts.
In another bowl, combine remaining ingredients. Beat with a fork or wire
whisk until blended. Add to dry mixture, mixing until all ingredients are
moistened. Place mixture in prepared pan.
Bake 35 min, until a toothpick inserted in the center of the bread comes
out clean.
Cool in pan on wire rack 10 min, then turn out onto rack to finish cooling.
Probably could substitute other nuts, and other fruits like apples.
