Time 1h25m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups unbleached flour
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 cup walnuts (optional) or 1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped (optional)
3/4 cup mini chocolate chip (optional)
1 1/2 cups bananas, very ripe and well mashed (3 bananas)
1/2 cup vanilla yogurt
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
6 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F Grease a large 9x5 loaf pan and set aside.
  • Stir the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, nuts and chocolate chips together in a large bowl and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, mix the mashed bananas, yogurt, eggs, butter and vanilla together.
  • Lightly fold the banana mixture into the dry ingredients until just combined and the batter looks thick and chunky.
  • Spoon the batter into the loaf pan and smooth the surface with a spatula.
  • Bake at 325°F until the loaf is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 70-75 minutes.
  • Cool in the pan for about 5 minutes and then turn out and let cool on a wire rack.

Tips:

  • Use fresh apples: Fresh apples provide the best flavor and texture for apple bread. If possible, use a variety of apples, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn.
  • Peel and core the apples: Be sure to peel and core the apples before grating them. This will help to remove any unwanted skin or seeds.
  • Grate the apples: Grating the apples will help to incorporate them evenly into the batter. You can use a box grater or a food processor fitted with a grating blade.
  • Use a combination of spices: The spices in this recipe, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice, all work together to create a warm and inviting flavor. Feel free to adjust the amount of each spice to suit your taste.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough, dense bread. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the bread in a loaf pan: A loaf pan will help to give the bread a uniform shape and texture. Grease and flour the pan before adding the batter.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This is the best way to tell if the bread is done baking. Depending on your oven, this may take anywhere from 50 to 60 minutes.
  • Let the bread cool before slicing: This will help to prevent the bread from crumbling.

Conclusion:

This Penzeys Apple Bread recipe is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist and fluffy texture, sweet and tangy flavor, and warm and inviting aroma, this bread is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
