I baked this recipe and it came out very good, but next time I will use 1/2 cup less flour and add some chopped dried apricots.

baking it in a loaf pan
I am sure you can... but maybe it would have to bake a little longer, since the batter would be deeper? Depends on the size of the loaf pan. Maybe you would need two loaf pans? Test it before you take it out of the oven.
