This apple pecan quick bread recipe is so delicious, that you may have fans waiting by the oven impatiently waiting for it to come out! You can use any type of apples, but I find that if you like a tart apple pie taste, then use green apples. If you like sweeter apples, then use red varieties. Personally, I use up the bruised apples of the red and green variety and it makes a perfect loaf! I do add 1/4 up of sugar, but the apples contribute so much natural fruit sweetness that you really just don’t need a lot of sugar in this recipe.
You Will Need:
- 1/2 cup pecans, chopped
- – I love to use both green and red apples
How To Prepare:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Grease a loaf pan or use PAM spray liberally.
In a large mixing bowl, mix together eggs, sugar, oil, and vanilla until smooth. Add the apples in and mix.
In a separate bowl, mix the flour, salt, baking powder, and cinnamon. Add the flour mixture to the wet mixture and stir until everything is combined, but don’t over mix.
Pour batter into the the loaf pan and bake for 50-55 minutes. Do the toothpick test to make sure it’s cooked through and not wet inside still.
Cool for about 15 minutes and take out of pan to cool on a rack. Eat and enjoy!
