Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 240 grams all-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 120 milliliters unsweetened applesauce
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 120 milliliters low-fat milk
- 1 medium granny smith apple, peeled, cored, and diced
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan with a little canola oil or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
In another bowl, beat together the granulated sugar, applesauce, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the low-fat milk, mixing gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the diced apple gently until well incorporated into the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 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, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
