Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup Brown sugar
• 0.75 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 0.5 cup Coconut oil, melted
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 large Eggs
• 2 cups Granny Smith apples, peeled and diced
• 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, applesauce, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and eggs. Mix well until smooth.

Step 4

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.

Step 5

Fold in the diced apples and walnuts, if using, until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Slice and serve the apple bread warm or at room temperature.
