Sugar and Cinnamon
Why does everything taste better with sugar and cinnamon? Apple chips, french toast, sweet potatoes, oatmeal, and if that wasn’t enough, now take this cinnamon apple bread recipe! There’s not just sugar and cinnamon in the batter but this recipe also has instructions to add a sprinkling on top of the batter just prior to baking.

Getting Prepared
Prior to cooking it’s best to always review the recipe and then get the ingredients handy.
Ingredients:
Topping
- 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Batter
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup applesauce unsweetened – see my homemade version
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar (heaping)
- 1/2 cup oil
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 apples cored and diced with skin removed. Keep aside about 5-7 sliced pieces with skin removed for topping. I like using this apple slicer to core and slice my apples, then all I have to do is remove the skin.
Once you have everything needed as called for in the recipe then let’s get started. Oh, you will need an electric hand mixer or I like to use my electric stand mixer with the paddle attachment.
Directions:
Prepare the topping of sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl and set aside for later.
This recipe calls for unsweetened applesauce. If you want to make your own applesauce from scratch now is the time to get started on that. I have a super easy no added sugar applesauce recipe that’s scrumptious if you’re interested.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Measure out the flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon into a bowl and set aside.
Mix together the brown sugar and oil until smooth. Then add eggs and vanilla extract. Slowly add the flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon stirring until well combined. Then fold in apple sauce and pieces by hand.
Transfer the batter mixture into a greased and floured 9×5 loaf pan. Add sliced apples to top of batter. Sprinkle with prepared sugar and cinnamon topping and bake for 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Remove from oven and let rest for 30 minutes. Then remove bread from pan and allow to cool on a cooling rack completely prior to cutting. Store in a airtight container. Its best to keep refrigerated.
Enjoy!

You forgot to add the flour, salt, baking powder, and cinnamon to the wet mixture.

Thank you for catching that Alyssa! As this is one of my older recipes these days I have been proofing recipes more closely prior to posting. Again, thank you!

Your directions do not mention when to add 1 cup of applesauce. Do you mix it in with the wet ingredients? Thank you. Your apple bread looks delicious. Looking forward to making this.

Hi Sarah: We updated the recipe to reflect the addition of the applesauce. Add the applesauce with the pieces of apples to the batter and stir by hand. Thank you!
