Instructions: Combine and set aside the oil, eggs, sugar, and vanilla. Sift flour, cinnamon, soda, and salt. Add dry ingredients to oil mixture gradually. Add apples and nuts. Bake in 2 regular loaf pans or 3 foil loaf pans for 1 1/2 hours at 300 degrees. Cool 10 minutes in the pan. Sprinkle with sugar, if desired.

Note: I bake it at 325 degrees for about 70 minutes.

My family prefers this low fat version:
Substitute 1 cup of unsweetened apple sauce for the oil Use 1 1/2 cups sugar
