Linda's Diabetic Recipe for Apple-Walnut Bread

This recipe for Apple-Walnut Bread is a recipe I pulled together for us diabetics.  However, it is good for those watching their carbs, or just trying to eat healthier.  It is so tasty, folks won't even realize they are eating "diabetic" bread!  Give it a try soon!  Great with coffee or a glass of milk.  This is a healthy after-school snack for the kids, too.  Children and adults can also enjoy this in their lunch box or bag.
