Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 0.75 cup milk
- 0.33 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 medium apple, peeled and diced (about 1 cup)
- 0.5 cup raisins
- 0.25 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, beat the egg, then add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Stir until fully combined.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and fold together until just combined. Avoid overmixing; the batter should remain slightly lumpy.
Gently fold in the diced apple, raisins, and chopped walnuts (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve slices warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your homemade Apple Raisin Bread!
