Recipe: Apple Harvest Quick Bread

This post may contain affiliate links. Read my full disclosure policy.

apple bread

When apples are in season, it’s a great time to whip up a batch of our fall favorite – Apple Harvest Quick Bread!

This bread is a winner – easy to make and incredibly moist! This is a lower-fat adaptation without nuts that my family enjoys. I’ve used many different varieties of apples and it’s great every time.

If you’re not sure which apple varieties bake well, you’ll want to peek at this handy apple reference chart from Nino Salvaggio.

I never make it without doubling the recipe, and often make mini-loaves for friends and neighbors. It’s worth the time you’ll save in making a big batch – and it freezes so well that you’ll be glad you did! Just wrap each loaf in plastic wrap or foil, then place inside a freezer bag.

Apple Harvest Quick Bread

Ingredients

  • 2 cups sugar
  • 2 eggs (or 4 egg whites)
  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 cups chopped apples (about 3 medium apples)

Instructions

  1. Combine sugar, eggs, oil and applesauce. Beat well until thoroughly combined.
  2. Add flour, cinnamon, baking soda and salt. Mix in dry ingredients until they are well-moistened.
  3. Stir in chopped apples. (The batter will seem thick, but it’s necessary to support the baked apples inside.)
  4. Prepare 2 loaf pans with nonstick spray. Divide batter equally between pans. Bake at 350 degrees for 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool on a rack. (You can easily adapt the timing to bake these as muffins or mini loaves!)

Variation: You can also prepare this recipe as Apple Harvest Cake and add a rich cream cheese frosting. Take a look at the original printable recipe from 30 Day Gourmet. It’s also delicious!

    Apple bread is the first thing I ever made for DH when we were dating. I may have to break out the apples this weekend for a treat.

    When you say “chopped apples”…how big should these be? Really small, like if you use “the chopper” on them? Sounds yummy, just not sure how I should cut up the apples.

      I like mine in small cubes, no bigger than 1/2.” The chopper would work. 🙂 You could shred the apple as well if you wanted to hide it a little more. Bigger apples won’t hurt it, it’ll just make more holes in the bread as they bake down.

    Just curious if anyone has tried to reduce the sugar or replaced it with something else, not splenda-type?
