My entire family loved this bread. I usually find apple breads to be either cloyingly sweet or way too stodgy. This recipe was perfect! All of the elements complemented each other well. You could actually taste the apple. The sponge had great flavor and texture, and the nuts added a nice substance and sweetness. All 3 of my children ate it without picking out any of the parts (a rare occurrence). For those watching their sugar intake, we have several type 1 diabetics in the family, and this bread did not spike their blood sugars like other muffin and quick bread recipes. Another win! We tried it fresh out of the oven and again a day later. I preferred it a day later once all of the flavors had come together, but it’s hard to wait that long with something that smells this good. I appreciated that I did not need a mixer for the recipe, too. Finally, the tip about the instant read thermometer was fantastic. My oven can be fickle, and it took the guesswork out of the bread being done, especially with the juice of the apples. This one is going on the “keeper” list.
This was delicious! I used Bob’s Red Mill 1 to 1 Gluten Free All purpose flour and unsalted butter in place of the canola oil. I will be making this again for sure.
A great taste of Fall for here in Orlando. I used Honeycrisp apples instead of Granny Smith apples. Next time, I will make the apple bread with half Honeycrisp apples and half Granny Smith apples.
This recipe was on point and amazing ! I used honey crisp apples in mine !! My husband and kids loved it !!!! I only got one slice because everybody ate it so fast …. So I will be making this again !
I made this. Doubled the recipe. Baked as directed. However i put the loaves under my broiler setting for a couple of minutes to see if the cinnamon sugar combo got crustier. It did! A hit in our house & our neighbors. Their 2 yr old couldn’t stop eating it & kept asking for more. I’m going to try toasting it in a toaster & buttering. Love it!!
This recipe is similar to a family favorite that I have been making for years. However, I was THRILLED that it called for only 1/4 of the oil used in the family favorite, but still was just as moist and flavorful!!
I made this delicious bread, but it disappeared in no time! We just couldn’t get enough of it!. I was happy to see a recipe made with whole wheat flour as my hubby can’t eat white flour. I did use the Granny Smith apples. I love making breads and this one was delicious! It also smelled sooo good and the apples were plentiful! Guess I really do have to make two of them at a time!
I 2x the batch and did one loaf with nuts (pecans) and the other without nuts as some in the family don’t like them. My favorite was the one with nuts.
I forgot to add the milk but it still worked 😂
This recipe is really good! I will definitely be making it again!
This was super easy to make bread. I was originally worried about the apple to batter ratio, but it worked out great! We used homemade applesauce and crispy red apples. It took a bit longer to cook through but I may blame that on using more apples!
I actually didn’t expect to like this recipe. It’s wonderful. I was very impressed with the moistness of the bread yet it still felt like a treat. Great flavor. I did cut my apples a little smaller than shown in the picture. Loved this so much.
Well Plated was recommended to me by a friend and this was my first recipe to try; it will definitely not be my last! This loaf was so moist, well-flavored, and light. Some quick breads can feel kind of stodgy to me, like fibrous pudding or something 🥴 But this texture was amazing. I shared a loaf with my coworkers and the general consensus was that this bread is what fruit cake should be! I threw in some dried cranberries as well, and that further amplified the sweet fruity flavor. I will be coming back to this website. Thank you Erin!
I’ve really been enjoying this recipe! The first time I made it I followed the receipe exactly, and it was delicious! I was skeptical about the texture with large apples and nuts, but it worked really well. I also made it with honeycrisp apples and no nuts and it was still great, just a bit softer. It’s a new fall staple.
This bread turned out great! Easy to make and tastes better the next day. My only regret is I baked it the exact time the recipe called for and forgot to check it beforehand. I think my oven baked it a few minutes quicker and I should have taken it out earlier. But it still tastes amazing!

This looks delicious! Might sub raisins for nuts. And would it be ok to make it one bowl?
Sure! Enjoy!

Great way to start celebrating fall! The granny smith apples provided that extra apple taste that made this bread a big hit with the family.
Yay! Looks fabulous, Darlene!
