  • Total Time: 1 hour 25 minutes
  • Yield: 12 servings

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 pinches salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons whole milk, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Other

  • 2 cups apples, peeled and finely chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, and ground cinnamon. Whisk to evenly distribute the ingredients.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, vegetable oil, whole milk, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter to keep the bread tender.
  5. Fold in Apples: Carefully fold in the finely chopped peeled apples, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter without overworking it.
  6. Pour Batter and Smooth: Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula for an even surface.
  7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
  8. Cool: Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove it from the pan and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients for better mixing and texture.
  • Do not overmix the batter to maintain a light and tender crumb.
  • You can substitute apples with other firm fruits like pears for variation.
  • Ensure apples are finely chopped to distribute flavor evenly.
  • Store wrapped tightly at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
