Healthy Apple Energy Loaf image

I've adapted this from a Rosemary Stanton recipe putting my own little twist on things. This loaf is a bit healthier than many regular loaf and cake recipes. It's free of lactose, butter and eggs and is a great snack when you're on the move or looking for a healthier alternative to satisfy those indulgent cravings!

This loaf is also great for freezing. I like to slice it up and freeze it in individual slices so I can grab one for a quick breakfast or snack.

I added some chopped walnuts to the batter for extra crunch and flavor.

I made this loaf for my family last weekend and they loved it! Even my picky eater son ate two slices. It's definitely a keeper.
