Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Wet Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 2 cups fresh apples, diced
Other Ingredients
- 1/2 cup caramel sauce
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that the bread bakes evenly and rises beautifully.
- Prepare the Pan: Grease a loaf pan with butter or line it with parchment paper for easy removal of the bread after baking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and any additional spices you choose to use.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, and then mix in the melted butter and diced apples until well combined.
- Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix!
- Add Caramel: Fold in half of the caramel sauce into the batter for a delightful surprise in every bite.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Drizzle: Once baked, allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Drizzle the remaining caramel sauce over the top before slicing.
Notes
- Use Fresh Apples: Ensure your apples are fresh for maximum flavor and moisture.
- Don’t Overmix: Mix the batter until just combined to keep the bread tender.
- Check for Doneness: Always use a toothpick to check for doneness; slight moist crumbs are okay.
- Let it Cool: Allow the bread to cool completely to enhance the flavors and make slicing easier.
- Store Properly: Follow storage tips to keep your bread fresh for longer.
