APPLE BREAD WITH DOUBLE STREUSEL



Apple Bread with Double Streusel image

One of the most delicious apple breads I have ever tasted. It is so unique because it has streusel on both the top and the bottom. The apples are shredded, which makes the bread very moist. Be prepared because everyone will ask you for the recipe!

Time 1h25m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 14

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples. Apples provide most of the moisture in this bread, so you want to use a variety that will hold its shape when baked. Granny Smith apples are a good choice, as they have a tart flavor that pairs well with the sweet granola topping.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Be patient when chilling the bread. Chilling the bread before baking helps to develop the flavor and texture. Be sure to chill it for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The bread is done when it is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Enjoy the bread warm or at room temperature. This bread is best enjoyed warm from the oven, but it can also be served at room temperature.

Conclusion:

This chunky apple bread with crunchy granola topping is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet apples, crunchy granola, and warm spices makes this bread irresistible. Plus, it's a great way to use up any leftover apples you may have.
