Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups raisin bran cereal
1 cup milk
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups finely chopped peeled apples (about 2 small)
1/2 cup walnuts, optional
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup sugar
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Grease 9x5x3 in loaf pan. Combine cereal, milk, oil, eggs and vanilla. Let stand 10 minutes. Stir to break up cereal; stir in apples and walnuts. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and baking soda. Add cereal mixture all at once to flour mixture; stir just until moistened. Spread evenly in prepared pan. Bake 60 to 65 minutes or until tester inserted in center comes out clean.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Use a variety of apples that will hold their shape when baked, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn.
  • Prepare the apples properly: Peel and core the apples, then cut them into small pieces. This will help them distribute evenly throughout the bread.
  • Soak the raisins: Soaking the raisins in hot water for 15 minutes will help them plump up and become more flavorful.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the bread at the right temperature: The bread should be baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Conclusion:

Apple raisin bran bread is a delicious and nutritious breakfast or snack. It's easy to make and can be varied with different types of apples, raisins, and nuts. So next time you're looking for a healthy and satisfying treat, give this recipe a try.
