Mix dry ingredients into the second bowl of wet ingredients and stir until combined, fold in the nuts. The recipe makes two 8x4 loaves, grease the loaf pans and pour in the batter.Bake in 350F oven for 50-60 minutes, until a knife inserted near the center, comes out clean. Let the loaves cool in the pans for 10 minutes and then remove loaves to a cooling rack. Enjoy! Stephanie Gipperich
