Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon (natural)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp natural gelling agent

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (natural)

Additional Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh apples, peeled and diced

Instructions

  1. Prepare the apples: Peel and dice fresh crisp apples into small, even pieces to ensure they cook evenly and distribute flavor throughout the bread.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon (natural), salt, and natural gelling agent to form the dry base of the batter.
  3. Combine wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, lightly beat the eggs, then add vegetable oil and vanilla extract (natural). Mix thoroughly to blend.
  4. Make the batter: Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined to create a smooth batter, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Fold in apples: Gently fold the diced apples into the batter, ensuring an even distribution without overworking the batter.
  6. Bake: Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 55 to 65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the bread to cool in the pan before slicing.

Notes

  • Use tart apples like Granny Smith for a perfect balance of sweetness and tartness.
  • Do not overmix the batter to avoid a dense texture.
  • Start checking doneness at 50 minutes as oven temperatures vary.
  • Use room temperature eggs for better incorporation and a fluffier texture.
  • Store wrapped tightly in foil or an airtight container to keep fresh for several days.
  • Optional variations: Add chopped walnuts or pecans, a pinch of nutmeg or cloves, drizzle maple syrup or date syrup glaze, mix in raisins or dried cranberries, or substitute half the flour with whole wheat flour for a heartier bread.
  • Before baking, optionally sprinkle cinnamon-sugar mix or chopped nuts on top for extra crunch and flavor.
  • Serve garnished with plant-based powdered sugar or cinnamon (natural), or add a drizzle of warm apple cider syrup or a dollop of plant-based cream cheese (plant-based).
