Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 1 large egg
• 0.75 cup milk
• 0.33 cup vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 medium apple, peeled and diced (about 1 cup)
• 0.5 cup raisins
• 0.25 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, beat the egg, then add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Stir until fully combined.

Step 4

Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and fold together until just combined. Avoid overmixing; the batter should remain slightly lumpy.

Step 5

Gently fold in the diced apple, raisins, and chopped walnuts (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

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

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 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 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Step 9

Serve slices warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your homemade Apple Raisin Bread!
