Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 180 grams gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 60 grams almond flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 150 grams brown sugar
- 120 milliliters unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 60 milliliters coconut oil, melted
- 2 cups grated apples
- 0.5 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Stir well to evenly mix the dry ingredients.
In a separate medium bowl, beat the eggs. Add the brown sugar, applesauce, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil, whisking until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the grated apples and chopped walnuts (if using) until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve the apple bread warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
