Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Notes
- Wash and peel the apples: Take the time to peel the apples with a vegetable peeler before you grate them. The skin doesn’t break down well as it cooks, so you’ll end up with stringy pieces in the bread.
- Instead of grating the apples: Chop them into small chunks instead!
- To prevent the apples from browning: Submerge the diced apple pieces in a bowl of water mixed with a splash of lemon juice before adding them to the batter.
- Measure the flour correctly: It’s best to spoon the flour into a measuring cup and level the excess off the top with a knife rather than scooping it from the bag. Too much flour in the dough = dry and dense bread.
