Egg Free Apple Cinnamon Bread

This egg free Apple Cinnamon Bread is the perfect fall comfort food. Filled with cinnamon-spiced apples, this simple apple bread bread requires no eggs. It’s great served with breakfast, as a snack, or even as a light dessert.

Our kids like to have this as part of a simple breakfast on busy weekdays. My second-grader also likes to bring a slice to school for his morning snack (students bring their own snack).

Fall is here, and apple orchard season is in full swing! This is a great recipe for those baskets of apples, and is a delicious way to help use them up. 😉 So grab those orchard apples, and you’ll be enjoying this simple bread in no time.

My egg free apple cinnamon bread uses freshly diced apples and simple pantry ingredients. Unsweetened applesauce adds extra flavor, sweetness, and moisture, and also happens to work as a binder.

This apple bread isn’t overly sweet, since we prefer it this way. However, you can increase the amount of sugar in the recipe for a sweeter, more dessert-like bread. I would suggest using 2/3 to 3/4 cup in that case.

Allergy Friendly Apple Cinnamon Bread

This recipe is egg free (no special substitutes required!), and nut free as-is. My egg free Apple Cinnamon Bread can also easily be adapted to be dairy free and vegan. Simply substitute dairy-free milk and butter in the recipe for a more allergy-friendly version. You can also use a neutral-flavored oil in place of butter, such as vegetable or canola oil. For those who are gluten free, you can also substitute 1:1 GF flour blend in place of all purpose flour.

With my 8 year old son’s egg allergy, I’ve learned to make breads and muffins without eggs. My son has now completed OIT (oral immunotherapy) for eggs and peanuts, so we can use eggs now. However, I often prefer the egg-free version and continue to bake many things without eggs.

What You’ll Need

How to Make Eggless Apple Cinnamon Bread

This apple cinnamon bread uses simple ingredients, requiring no eggs. (Use the Jump to Recipe button below to skip ahead to the recipe!).

1. Preheat oven to 350F. Spray an 9 x 5″ (or similar) loaf pan with cooking spray, and/or line with parchment paper.
2. To prepare apples, peel them and dice into small cubes. Toss 2 cups of diced apples with 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon until evenly coated.
3. In a small bowl, stir together all dry ingredients.
4. In a large bowl, stir together all wet ingredients.
5. Add dry ingredients to wet, and stir just until combined. Gently fold in diced apples.
6. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. (Bake time will vary by pan, so be sure to check the center).
7. Cool bread in the pan for about 10 minutes, then carefully transfer to a wire cooling rack. Allow to cool completely before storing in an airtight container. Tip: a parchment paper lined pan provides easy removal – simply lift out of the pan using edges of paper.
