Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon nutmeg
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup light brown sugar
• 0.5 cup unsweetened applesauce
• 0.25 cup vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 0.75 cup non-dairy milk (e.g., almond, soy)
• 2 medium Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and chopped
• 0.5 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

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

Step 3

In a separate medium mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, light brown sugar, unsweetened applesauce, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and apple cider vinegar. Mix until smooth.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined; it's okay if the batter is slightly lumpy.

Step 5

Add the non-dairy milk and gently fold in the chopped apples and walnuts, if using.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.

Step 7

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

Step 8

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

Step 9

Slice and enjoy your dairy-free apple cinnamon bread!
