This wholesome Egg Free Apple Cinnamon Bread with whole wheat flour makes an excellent breakfast staple! It’s egg free and nut free as is, and I’m confident that it would also work out well with any dairy free milk substitutes (which also makes it vegan).

My recipe calls for less refined sugar and fat than many recipes, getting some of its flavor and moistness from the unsweetened applesauce. Whole wheat flour gives this eggless apple cinnamon bread an extra boost of protein and fiber.

Since it incorporates whole wheat flour (I use King Arthur) and less sugar, I feel good about serving this bread for breakfast with some fruit and protein (or having some as a healthier dessert – or any time, really!). Try topping a slice with some SunButter and cinnamon for a great snack option with some extra protein.

I leave out the diced apples because it’s quicker, but some diced fresh apples would also be a wonderful addition! For Egg Free Apple Cinnamon Muffins, bake in a greased muffin tin for 12-16 minutes (or until a toothpick comes out clean).

This Egg Free Apple Cinnamon Bread with whole wheat flour makes an excellent breakfast staple! It’s egg free and nut free as is, and I’m confident that it would also work out well with a dairy free milk alternative (which also makes it vegan!). It contains a little less sugar than a typical quick bread recipe, and whole wheat flour gives it an extra boost of protein and fiber.

Ingredients

⅔ cup unsweetened applesauce
½ cup brown sugar packed
2 Tablespoons water
¼ cup vegetable or canola oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup all purpose flour
¾ cup whole wheat flour (I use King Arthur brand)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 tsp cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup milk of choice (may use DF alternative)

Topping (Optional)

1 Tablespoon sugar for topping
¼ – ½ teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350F. Grease 9X5 loaf pan with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, stir together applesauce, brown sugar, water, oil, and vanilla extract (leave milk for last).
In a smaller bowl, whisk together all dry ingredients (all purpose flour, whole wheat flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt).
Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, then add milk. Stir all together just until moistened.
Pour batter into greased loaf pan. Optional: Stir together 1 Tbsp sugar + ¼ to ½ tsp cinnamon and sprinkle over top before baking.
Bake at 350F for approximately 45 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer to wire cooling rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.

Notes

For 12 muffins, bake for approximately 14-18 minutes.

For 24 mini muffins, bake for approximately 11-14 minutes.

Optional: Gently stir in ½ to 1 cup finely chopped apples to batter before baking.
