Moist Cinnamon Apple Bread
Description
Moist Cinnamon Apple Bread combines applesauce and three cups of diced green apples with cinnamon and a mix of granulated and brown sugars to create a deeply flavorful quick bread batter. Eggs and vanilla extract provide structure and richness, while baking soda and salt ensure proper rise and seasoning. The diced Granny Smith apples add tartness and moisture, punctuating the bread with tender fruit pockets.
Baked at a low 300-degree Fahrenheit temperature for 90 minutes in two loaf pans, the bread emerges with a soft, moist crumb and a mild cinnamon aroma. The slow bake helps to evenly cook the dense batter without drying it out, preserving the moisture contributed by the apples and applesauce.
This apple bread is excellent for an easy breakfast, afternoon tea, or lunchbox treat. Its moist texture and balanced sweetness also make it enjoyable plain or with a smear of butter.
Ingredients
- 1 cup applesauce unsweetened
- 3 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 3 cups green apple peeled and cored, diced; Granny Smith variety
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease 2 (9x5-inch) bread loaf pans with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl whisk together 1 cup unsweetened applesauce, 3 large eggs, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until combined. Whisk in 1 cup granulated sugar and 1 cup brown sugar until smooth.
- Stir in 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, and 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon until thoroughly mixed in. Then use a rubber spatula to fold in 3 cups diced granny smith apples.
- Divide batter equally into the two prepared pans. Bake in the 300-degree oven for 90 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove pans from oven and let cool for 10 to 15 minutes on a wire rack before removing the loaf from the pan. Cool completely on a wire cooling rack.
