Apple Cider Bread


  • Apple Ingredients:
    • 2 apples, diced into half-inch chunks
    • 1 Tablespoon brown sugar
    • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
    • 1/2 Tablespoon butter
  • Streusel Ingredients:
    • 2/3 cup flour
    • 2 Tablespoon brown sugar
    • 4 Tablespoons sugar
    • pinch of salt
    • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
    • 70 grams (5 Tablespoons) cold butter
  • Bread Ingredients:
    • 225 grams sugar
    • 100 grams brown sugar
    • 113 grams neutral oil
    • 113 grams melted butter
    • 3 eggs
    • 1 cup Greek yogurt
    • 1 cup apple cider (NOT VINEGAR)
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 360 grams all-purpose flour
    • 1 Tablespoon + 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
    • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
    • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
    • 1/8 teaspoon cardamom
    • 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
    • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • Apple Recipe:
    • peel and dice the apples into small chunks
    • place them all in a pot with the brown sugar, cinnamon, and butter
    • heat on medium and stir the apples until the sugar, cinnamon, and butter all melt into each other and coat the apples in syrupy goodness
    • the apples should not be cooked all the way – only the outside should be slightly softened
    • turn off heat and set aside to cool
  • Streusel Recipe:
    • whisk together the flour, brown sugar, sugar, salt, and cinnamon
    • cut the cold butter into small chunks and add them to the mix
    • work the butter into the flour with your hands until you get something that feels like wet sand – powdery but holds together when you press it in your hand
  • Loaf Recipe:
    • whisk together all the dry ingredients from the flour to the salt
    • in a bowl with a whisk or a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream together the sugars, oil, and butter
    • after about 3 minutes of mixing, mix in the eggs one by one
    • then mix in the Greek yogurt, apple cider, and vanilla one by one as well
    • sift in the flour mixture
    • mix everything together just until there is no more flour visible – don’t mix the batter too much
    • fold in all the cooled, cooked apples
    • this recipe is meant for a bundt pan – you can use one Bundt pan or 4 small loaf pans
    • butter the inside of whichever pan you are using
    • fill it 3/4 of the way with the batter
    • press tightly on the streusel to create a large clump, then break it apart into chunks – like rocks on a beach!
    • sprinkle it all over the top of the batter
    • lightly press the layer of streusel down into the batter so that they stay in place
    • place in the oven preheated at 350 degrees F for about 40 minutes for the loaf pans or 60 minutes for the Bundt pan until a small knife poked into the center comes out clean
    • remove from the oven once it’s done and let it sit for about 15 minutes
    • flip the bread over onto a cooling rack and let it cool completely before digging in!
