Easy Apple Butter Bread
This soft, perfectly spiced apple butter bread makes an easy breakfast or brunch loaf you’ll want to bake all season!
Ingredients
- 1 cup light brown sugar packed
- ½ cup Greek yogurt
- 1 cup apple butter
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon nutmeg
- ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, Greek yogurt, apple butter, eggs, milk , and vanilla until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- In the same bowl (to keep it simple!), add the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt..
- Stir gently until the dry ingredients are just incorporated. Don’t overmix or the loaf can turn dense!
- Pour the batter into your prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with just a few crumbs.
- Cool the loaf in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Notes
- For best results, use high-quality apple butter for richer flavor and even texture.
- If the bread starts to brown too quickly, loosely tent the top with foil during the last 10–15 minutes of baking.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature or freeze up to 3 months.
