Directions

Combine dry ingredients, whisk and set aside.

Mix butter and sugar until blended nicely.

Stir in dry ingredients without over mixing.

Stir in eggs.

Mix in fruit and nuts.

Pour into oiled or greased bread pan. 

Bake 350 until toothpick comes out clean, about 50 minutes.

Note: If you leave the plum out, the flour can be reduced the 2 Tblsp.

in which case, I prefer 1 cup white and 1/3 cup whole wheat, but that's per tastes. 

Comments

PS. I added the plum here because one day, I didn't have enough apples

for my apple crisp, so I added a pear and a plum, and that was fruity delicious,

especially the plum, so now I'm trying plum in everything (and my apple crisp

is forever changed.)
