Ingredients
Instructions
- Spray a loaf pan with non-stick spray or Pam.
- Mix oats, flour, soda, cinnamon, and allspice in a bowl.
- In a small bowl, beat honey, skim milk, oil, and egg whites until blended.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir just until the flour is moistened; batter will be lumpy.
- Fold in the chopped cooking apples.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- Bake in a 350°F oven for 65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread rest in the pan for 10 minutes before removing.
- Slice and serve.
Tips & Substitutions
To enhance the flavor, consider adding chopped nuts or raisins to the batter. If you're looking for a lower-sugar option, you can reduce the honey or substitute it with unsweetened applesauce. Ensure that the apples are finely chopped for even distribution throughout the bread. If you prefer a spicier taste, increase the cinnamon or add a pinch of nutmeg.
Serving Suggestions
This Apple Oat Bread is delicious on its own but can be served with a dollop of Greek yogurt or a drizzle of honey for added creaminess. Pair it with a warm cup of tea or coffee for a delightful breakfast or snack. It also pairs beautifully with a side of fresh fruit for a balanced meal.

Store leftover Apple Oat Bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. For longer storage, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator, where it can last up to a week.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use whole wheat flour instead of regular flour?
Yes, whole wheat flour can be used as a substitute to increase the fiber content. However, it may result in a denser texture. You might want to mix half whole wheat and half all-purpose flour for a lighter loaf.
What type of apples are best for this recipe?
For this recipe, tart apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work best as they provide a nice contrast to the sweetness of the honey. Make sure to peel and core the apples before chopping them into small pieces.
Can I make this recipe vegan?
Yes, you can make this Apple Oat Bread vegan by substituting the egg whites with a flaxseed meal or chia seed mixture (1 tablespoon of seeds mixed with 2.5 tablespoons of water per egg white). Additionally, use a plant-based milk instead of skim milk.
