Description
Delicious apple cinnamon bread perfect for breakfast or dessert.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1½ cups Granny Smith apples (peeled and chopped)
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ½ cup unsalted butter (softened)
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- ⅓ cup Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- ½ cup milk
- 1¾ cups all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
Instructions
- Prepare the apples. Peel and chop your apples. Do not go with small cubes; aim for bite-sized pieces. Toss the apples with the sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Set aside.
- Prepare to bake. Heat your oven to 350ºF. Line your 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
- Make the bread batter. Using an electric mixer, cream the butter with the granulated sugar and brown sugar in a large bowl. Add eggs, beating well after each addition. Add yogurt, vanilla, and milk, stir to combine.
- Add the dry ingredients. Using a mesh strainer or a sifter, sift the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, and baking soda over the liquid mixture. Stir until just combined.
- Assemble. Transfer half of the bread batter to the loaf pan. Add half of the apples on top. Pour the remaining batter over the apples, then add the remaining apples on top of the batter.
- Bake. Bake the bread for 60-70 minutes, covering it with aluminum foil halfway through baking.
- Serve. Remove the bread from the oven and let it rest in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
Notes
- This bread can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- For an extra touch, consider adding walnuts or pecans into the batter.
