Walnut Bread

Today I used one of my favorite recipes and made walnut bread. I found the recipe years ago on Redwall.net, and I've made it many times since then. It's a sweet bread, but it's not too sweet, and it's always wonderfully moist. The original recipe called for 1/4 cup shortening, but I always use apple sauce instead.
