Ingredients
- 200 grams 1:1 gluten-free flour blend
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon nutmeg
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 250 grams unsweetened apple sauce
- 175 grams sugar*
- 1 large egg (50-56 grams)
- 65 grams avocado or canola oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 120 grams apples, peeled and cut ¼-inch cubes
- Cinnamon sugar for topping
Instructions
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt.
-
Put the apple sauce and sugar in another large bowl. Add the egg, mixing well to incorporate. Stir in the oil and vanilla, mixing well.
-
Stir in the flour mixture until just combined.
-
Set batter aside to rest for 30 minutes.
-
Fold in the chopped apples.
-
Spray an 8x4-inch loaf pan with nonstick spray, and pour in your batter. Decorate with thin-sliced apples (if desired), and sprinkle the top with cinnamon sugar.
-
Bake for 45 minutes to an hour, or until a toothpick or cake tester comes out clean. I usually check and rotate the pans after the first 30 minutes.
Recipe Notes
*If you want to lower the amount of refined sugar in this recipe, replace the sugar with raw coconut sugar or maple sugar. The bread will have a slightly richer, molasses-like hint to it.
