Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1 cup sour cream
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups apples, peeled, cored, and finely diced
- 0.75 cup walnuts, chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon until evenly combined.
In a separate medium bowl, beat the eggs lightly. Stir in the sour cream, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing, as it can make the bread dense.
Fold in the diced apples and chopped walnuts until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread 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.
Slice and serve! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
