Jump to Recipe

Cinnamon glazed Apple Bread is a quick and easy bread to for tea time or for breakfast. Chunks of apples in the bread tastes delicious and the cinnamon glaze on the bread makes it even better.

Apple, one of my favorite fruit and something we always have in our fruit basket. We use the apples in many different way other than just eating it. I have made several recipes with apples, Indian and other cuisines.

I am still not done exploring many other possibilities. When I chose the theme Fall fruit dessert as this week's BM theme, the first fruit of choice was apple.

Spiced Apple Jam is one of the very sought after recipe at my house. I always have a batch of it in my refrigerator and my boys eat it with literally everything under the sky. I will list the other Apple recipes that I have made below.

Why this recipe works?

The Lemon Blueberry Bread that I had made a while ago was very popular. The color of the bread was just so beautiful and that made it even more attractive to eat. I took the inspiration from the same bread and played with the recipe a little and made this Cinnamon Glazed Apple Bread.

I used a part of whole wheat flour in this recipe and there was just no difference between the ones made with entirely All Purpose flour. In fact, I thought the bread had an even more great texture and it sliced way beautifully than the breads that was made entirely with APF.

Cinnamon is the only predominant spice that I used in this bread as it is fall and what better than a whole house smelling of cinnamon and apples.

I used gala apples as we like slightly sweeter apples in our bread. Granny smith is a popular apple for baking and has a more tart / sour flavor. Peeling the apple is important as the skin tends to become hard and chewy when baking.

I did not use any lemon juice in my apples to preserve the color. Instead, I chopped the apple right before it was time to go into the batter. This way it maintained the color. The apples remained intact and had a pleasant bite to it after baking.
