Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups Brown sugar (packed)
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1.5 cups Apples, peeled, cored, and diced
• 0.75 cups Walnuts, chopped
• 0.25 cups Milk

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch (23x13 cm) loaf pan, or line it with parchment paper for easier removal.

Step 2

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

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, combine granulated sugar, brown sugar, and eggs. Mix well until creamy and smooth.

Step 4

Add the melted butter and vanilla extract to the wet mixture, stirring until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, mixing until a thick batter forms. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Stir the milk into the batter to thin it slightly. Then gently fold in the diced apples and chopped walnuts until evenly distributed.

Step 7

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

Step 8

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

Step 9

Remove the loaf from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Step 10

Serve slices of the apple walnut bread as is, or with a spread of butter for added richness. Enjoy!
