2 c All-purpose flour
1 c Old-fashioned rolled oats
1/2 c Sugar
2 1/2 ts Baking powder
1/2 ts Baking soda
1 ts Salt
1 Egg
3 tb Oil or shortening, melted
1/2 ts Vanilla extract
1 c COCA-COLA
1 c Prunes, very well drained
And coarsely chopped *
1/2 c Walnuts, chopped
Prune halves (optional)
* you may substitute 1/2 cups of dried prunes. Lightly spoon the flour
into a measuring cup; level off.
In a large bowl, stir together the flour, rolled oats, sugar, baking
powder, baking soda, and salt.
In another bowl, beat with a fork, the egg, oil, and vanilla extract until
well blended. Add to the flour mixture. Add the Coca-Cola, prunes, and
nuts; blend thoroughly with a spoon. Turn into a well-greased, lightly
floured, 9x5x3-inch loaf pan. Garnish with prune halves, if desired.
Bake in a preheated, 350 degree F oven for about 1 hour or until a wooden
toothpick inserted in the center comes out cleans. Cool on a rack for 20
minutes before removing the bread from the pan. Store in foil overnight
before slicing. Makes 1 loaf.
