This is my most asked-for recipe. I've used it for many years, which is obvious from my recipe card that's yellowed and full of stains. The fruity appearance and taste of this easy-to-make bread blend beautifully with our warm Florida sunshine. It's always a hit whenever I serve it.

This bread was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. The bread was moist and flavorful, and the apricots added a nice sweetness. I think I would use less sugar next time.
