Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
• 0.5 cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup non-dairy milk (such as almond or soy)
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1.5 cups grated apples (peeled and cored, about 2 medium apples)
• 0.5 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In another bowl, mix the applesauce, brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir well until the sugar is mostly dissolved.

Step 4

Add the non-dairy milk and apple cider vinegar to the wet ingredients and stir to incorporate.

Step 5

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix to avoid a tough bread.

Step 6

Fold in the grated apples and chopped walnuts, gently incorporating them throughout the batter.

Step 7

Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.

Step 9

Let the apple bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then remove it from the pan and transfer to a wire rack to completely cool before slicing.

Step 10

Slice and serve the bread once cooled, and enjoy your vegan apple bread as a delightful treat.
