I've become obsessed with apple bread. I've always loved quick breads, but Zucchini is only in season for a couple of months, I hate bananas, and it's just weird to make pumpkin bread any time other than fall. So I needed a new go to loaf bread for when Zucchini isn't in season and this is it. You know when you get apples at the grocery store and get home to find they're mushy and terrible. Don't throw them out, make this bread!!!
Adapted from: http://allrecipes.com/recipe/apple-bread-2/
Ingredients:
- 3 Cups Flour
- 1 tsp Baking Soda
- 1 tsp Salt
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 3 Eggs beaten
- 2/3 Cup White Sugar
- 2/3 Cup Brown Sugar
- 1/2 Cup Apple Sauce (I like strawberry flavored. It randomly enhances the apple flavor of the bread. Totally weird.)
- 1/2 Cup Oil
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 3 cups shredded apple (About 3-4 medium apples. If you prefer chunks of stuff in your bread, feel free to chop up apples instead of shredding them.)
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
- Whisk together the flour, soda, salt, and cinnamon. In a separate bowl, combine the eggs, sugars, apple sauce, oil, and vanilla.
- Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Add in the shredded apple.
- Spray two loaf pans with PAM and divide the bread batter between them. Bake in preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Remove from pans and cool. Serve with a thick slather of butter. MMmmmm.
