Green Tomato Bread

From SQUIERS MANOR BED AND BREAKFAST
Ingredients:

2 eggs
2 cups sugar
2 cups green tomatoes, pureed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup oil
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 teaspoon almond flavoring
3 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon cloves
1 1/2 cups nuts
2 - 3 drops red food coloring (optional)

Note: This first reaction to this bread is "green tomato bread ?!" But it is really an amazing recipe. Very moist and flavorful!

Beat together eggs, sugar, tomatoes, salt, oil, and flavorings. In a separate bowl, sift together flour, baking soda and baking powder. Add the dry mixture to the wet, stirring until incorporated. Stir in the spices, nuts and food coloring. Pour into loaf pans and bake at 350 degrees about 1 hour.

Note: I add the red food coloring to give the bread a nice light brown color, similar to zucchini bread.
