Easy Apple Bread
There's lots of fresh apples (2 medium Granny Smiths) in this lightly sweet bread, perfect for afternoon tea..
Ingredients:
- 1 2/3 cup all purpose flour
- 1/3 cup white sugar
- 2 Tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- pinch of nutmeg (optional)
- ½ cup milk (I use reduced fat)
- 2 eggs
- 3 Tablespoons vegetable oil (I use avocado oil)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cups Granny Smith apples, cut in ¼-inch pieces
- Topping: 2 teaspoons sugar + 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- Line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
- Combine dry ingredients (flour through spices) in a large bowl.
- In small bowl, combine milk, eggs, oil, and vanilla.
- Peel and core apples and cut into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Fold the milk mixture into the flour mixture until barely combined. Do not over-mix.
- Gently fold in apples. Batter will be thick and chunky.
- Spread batter into the loaf pan. Smooth the top and sprinkle with sugar/cinnamon mixture.
- Bake for one hour. Cover the top with foil after about 35 minutes to prevent burning.
I was an avid watcher of your tv show and so glad I can get great recipes. I made your no milk,butter,eggs chocolate cake for my grandson’s 4th Birthday and it was a hit with everyone. I am especially looking forward to making your 90 minute whole wheat bread and the cinnamon raisin bread tomorrow. Thankyou, Patricia
