Apple Bread

Ingredients:

• 2 cups finely diced apple
• 2 cups white, spelt, or oat flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 3/4 cup sugar (unrefined if desired)
• 1 cup milk of choice
• 3 1/2 TBSP oil (or applesauce for low fat)
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 F.
2. Stir dry ingredients very well. Then, add remaining ingredients to form a batter, and smooth into a greased 9×5 pan.
3. Bake for 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the apple bread comes out mostly clean.
4. Let cool before serving.

Tips:

• Option 1 ~ Add the cinnamon to the dry ingredients.
• Option 2 ~ Mix the cinnamon into 2 TBSP of the milk and swirl that mixture into the loaf right before baking.
• Cover with a cloth overnight and serve the next day, because the flavor and texture are even better.
• Leftovers can also be sliced and frozen.
