Awesome Apple Bread

Recipe #647 | 3¼ hours | 20 min prep | add private note

This bread is so moist and flavorful that my kids even eat the ends, which for most quick breads I usually have to throw away. At Christmas, I make the mini loaves and give as gifts to my neighbors. The oil can be replaced with 1 cup of unsweetened applesauce. Still flavorful but not quite as moist. If possible, don't skip the walnuts, they really add to it.

2 -3 loaves (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Combine and set aside the oil, eggs, sugar, and vanilla.
  2. 2
    Sift flour, cinnamon, soda, and salt. Add dry ingredients to oil mixture gradually.
  3. 3
    Add apples and nuts.
  4. 4
    Bake in 2 regular loaf pans or 3 foil loaf pans for 1 1/2 hours at 300 degrees.
  5. 5
    Cool 10 minutes in the pan.
  6. 6
    Sprinkle with sugar, if desired.
  7. 7
    Note: I bake it at 325 degrees for about 70 minutes.

This was wonderful! I made it once as listed (no nuts) and once with half applesauce and half oil. Both times it came out great! Gone before it cools in this house. Neighbors keep asking me to make more. This will definitely be a Christmas gift this year.

    Exceptionally good! Since I didn't have applesauce to replace some of the oil, I just decreased it by 1/4 cup (cake is still very moist). Used a cup of dark brown sugar and half a cup of white, about four cups of apples, half a cup of ground flax seeds, half white and half whole wheat flour and apple pie spice with a little extra cinnamon. Had it for breakfast this a.m. with some whipped cream cheese. This a keeper!

    I finally made this recipe (been sitting on it all summer) and it really is "Awesome". I didn't stray too much from recipe except I added about a half cup of raisins. I too cooked it at 325 F but used two foil pans and cooked it for 90 minites. Two thumbs up Johnson!!! I bet dried cranberries would be a good addition...hmmmm

    Great bread, just a bit on the sweet side for me though. That is just a matter of personal taste though. I think I may cut the sugar back next time and see if I that helps. I did substitute half of the oil for applesauce and the bread was still quit moist. I will be giving these as Chritmas gifts and it is SUCH a nice change from the typical banana bread.
