Cooking adventures in a small, closet sized, kitchen. - I came to realize that my meals were boring and that I had been eating the same few dishes over and over again for years.

Apple and Cinnamon Oatmeal Bread

[heart_this] · Dec 16, 2008 · 44 Comments

Apple and Cinnamon Oatmeal Bread

While I was thinking about what I wanted to do for breakfasts this week my thoughts kept coming back to apples, cinnamon and oatmeal. Although apple and cinnamon oatmeal sounded good, I thought that I would make it a bit more interesting and do an apple and cinnamon oatmeal bread. I wanted the bread to be full of apple flavour and to have nice big chunks of apple with every bite. To achieve this goal I used both large pieces of chopped apples and some of my own home made roasted apple sauce in the bread. Of course there had to be a lot of cinnamon and I thought that some raisins and chopped pecans would finish off the bread nicely. In addition to using rolled oats in the bread I garnished it with some more. The apple and cinnamon oatmeal bread turned out great! It was nice and light and fluffy and moist and full of appley goodness! I really enjoyed the texture provided by the chunks of apple, the rolled oats and the raisins and nuts. I think I might just have a new favorite quick bread.

    That looks delish, I would have to pass on the cinnamon, but I’m sure the other flavors would more than compensate. Great job, Kevin.

    I substituted 1/2 cup of orange marmalade for the syrup and applesauce. Left out the raisins. It was really delicious. Took a full hour to bake though. 40 minutes too short. Great recipe.

    Looks delicious! Question, do you think gluten free flour be subbed for the flour? I think I am going to try it with GF flour and see what happens. Thanks for the recipe!

    Food Lovin Momma: I have not tried it but a gluten free flour alternative should work. Enjoy!
