Why this recipe for Apple Bread with Rosemary & Sunflower Seeds works:\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

What I love about this Apple Bread, is that it is both sweet and savoury and therefore the PERFECT brunch treat.\u00a0 Serve it straight out of the oven with cheese or salted butter for a savory apple bread, or with cream cheese and honey or nut butter for a sweet treat!<\/p>\n

The recipe for this Apple Bread could not be easier! You basically mix the dry and the wet ingredients and combine them. Done in 5 minutes. No creaming butter and sugar, no whipping of egg whites! The apple loaf cake will still be super fluffy and as moist as can be!<\/p>\n

Which apples shall I use for making Apple Bread?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

What we want for this Apple Bread, are juicy pockets of fruit in a moist fluffy batter. Therefore, I recommend you use a more robust variety of apple so that it does not turn to mush when baking. My favorite\u00a0apples to use for this quick bread, are Granny Smith or Fuji Apples.<\/p>\n

How to make Apple Bread with Rosemary and Sunflower Seeds:\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Preheat the oven to 350 F, or 175 C. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper. Toast the sunflower seeds in a pan without oil and let cook. Peel, core and chop the apple.<\/p>\n

Mix flour, salt, baking powder, sugar and spices in a bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk buttermilk, eggs and oil. Add the wet mix to the dry ingredients and stir with a spatula until a wet, sticky batter forms.
\nLittle clumps are no problem. Make sure not to overmix the batter.<\/p>\n

As the last addition, add sunflower seeds and apple chunks, stir quickly, then spread batter in your lined loaf pan.<\/p>\n

Bake the Apple Bread for 45-50 minutes until the sides start to brown. Test with a wooden skewer for doneness. Insert it into the middle of the cake and check, if there is any wet batter sticking to it. If not, your Apple Bread is done!<\/p>\n
