Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution of ingredients.
In another bowl, whisk together the milk, unsweetened applesauce, olive oil, and eggs until smooth.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the bread tough.
Fold in the chopped walnuts, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
Carefully remove the bread from the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Enjoy the bread fresh, or store it in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
