Apple Loaf Bread

I love a sweet bread for the kids for quick breakfast when times are busy.  It's a sweet treat admittedly, but it also has nutrition.  This one, I think, is a nice mix of things.  The fat is not excessive nor is the sugar.  (I guess the walnuts have quite a bit of fat in them but its good fat).  I think it is a winner.
