CHUNKY APPLE BREAD
This is from the January 2002 Quick Cooking magazine. It was sent in by Joan Hallford, N. Richland Hills Texas. I have made it several times and really like it. The bread is fantastic toasted with butter. It makes two small loafs so I freeze one. There was an Editor's note that fat free Mayonnaise should not be used. One teaspoon vinegar in regular milk replaces the buttermilk.

Tips:
- Make sure the apples are peeled and diced into small, even pieces. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming mushy.
- If you don't have any granola on hand, you can make your own by combining oats, nuts, seeds, and spices in a bowl. Then, spread the mixture on a baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
- If you want a sweeter bread, you can add 1/2 cup of sugar to the batter. However, the natural sweetness of the apples and the granola topping should be enough for most people.
- Be sure to grease and flour the loaf pan before pouring in the batter. This will help the bread to come out of the pan easily.
- Bake the bread at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Conclusion:
This chunky apple bread with crunchy granola topping is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. The bread is moist and flavorful, and the granola topping adds a sweet and crunchy contrast. It is a great way to use up leftover apples, and it is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
