Without a doubt, teaching is the most chronically underpaid profession out there and those who pursue this career objective know that they will be underappreciated, but they often choose their profession for the betterment of society and the joy of helping children learn. With that in mind, a little thanks goes a long way. For all that he or she does, who could possibly deserve a nice thank you note more than a dedicated teacher? Thank-you-notes.com offers a section on "Thank You Notes for Teachers". Your note would probably be most appropriate at the end of the school year or during Teacher's Appreciation Week (observed annually, the first full week of May). Just a note seems a trifle insufficient to recognize a teacher and all that he or she does. So, how about including an apple--the traditional fruit of knowledge? But, does a simple apple not seem a little been there, done that, boring to you? How about some nice apple bread?
Even though the beginning recipe for this came out of American Profile magazine, my mother and I have modified it to make it even tastier. For example, the original recipe called for diced apples; however, most people have a simple gadget (like the one pictured below) that cores a peeled or unpeeled apple (it is easier to peel the apples first) and separates it into sections.
The only actual addition to the recipe is the dash of nutmeg, to complement the cinnamon. Other than that, as long as you follow the directions below, you should have a wonderful treat to go along with your teacher's thank you note. May I recommend that if you are making a triple or quadruple batch, use a very large mixing bowl and when it comes time to add the apples mix them in while standing at the kitchen sink
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. For a single recipe, grease and flour 2 standard 9x5 loaf pans. Whisk together all ingredients, except for flour, apples and, walnuts. Make sure to mix very thoroughly before adding flour. Stir flour in only until evenly mixed, do not over mix. You can use an electric mixer for these first steps. Then stir in apples (Roma, Gale, or McIntosh apples make the best bread) and walnuts by hand, until evenly distributed throughout. Pour batter into prepared pans and bake for 55 to 65 minutes. Actual baking time will vary depending on your oven, but bake until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Make sure it is completely cool before removing it from the pan.
