This delicious, moist bread is chock full of fruit, fiber and flavor. It's a great holiday bread.

In a large bowl, combine both flours, baking power, baking soda, and cinnamon. Mix well. Add apricots, figs, raisins, and nuts.



In another bowl, combine remaining ingredients. Beat with a fork or wire whisk until blended. Add to dry mixture, mixing until all ingredients are moistened. Place mixture in prepared pan.
