Instructions

  • Step 
    1
    Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Grease bottom and sides of 2 (8x4-inch) loaf pans with shortening; lightly flour.
  • Step 
    2
    In large bowl, mix flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, baking soda and ginger. Stir in apricots and nuts. Set aside.
  • Step 
    3
    In another bowl, mix buttermilk, oil, eggs and vanilla until well blended. Add buttermilk mixture to flour mixture and stir just until moistened. Divide batter between pans.
  • Step 
    4
    Bake 1 hour or until golden brown and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, covering loosely with foil after 40 minutes to prevent overbrowning, if necessary. Cool 10 minutes; remove from pans to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 1 hour.
  • Step 
    5
    In small bowl, mix glaze ingredients until smooth and thin enough to drizzle. Drizzle over bread.
