Fresh Apple Oatmeal Breakfast Bread

We found the original recipe on FoodNetwork.com and did a little modification to make this breakfast bread gluten-free. At the same time, we added a little more spice. The result is a fabulous breakfast bread that is sure to impress anyone you serve.

Converting this recipe to gluten-free is easy if you use a gluten-free one-to-one flour and gluten-free oats. We used Bob’s Red Mill for both. These days, it’s becoming much easier to find gluten-free baking ingredients, so there’s no reason to not give gluten-free a try!

Instructions

1. Combine brown sugar, oats, cinnamon and melted butter in a small bowl. Set aside.
2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut a piece of parchment paper large enough to just cover the base of the bread pan. Place in bottom of the pan. Grease the parchment paper with butter or use a cooking spray.
3. Place oats in a blender and process to a flour-like consistency.
4. In a large bowl, combine oats with next four dry bread ingredients (all purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and cinnamon).
5. In a medium bowl, combine eggs, honey, oil, and vanilla.
6. Stir brown sugar into egg mixture until combined. Add in apples and stir again. Slowly add in flour mixture, being sure to not over-mix. Gently stir in walnuts.
7. Pour batter into the loaf pan and sprinkle with crumble topping.
8. Bake for 1 hour or until a wooden toothpick (or a cake tester) comes out clean when inserted. Cool on wire rack for 10 minutes, then remove from pan and cool completely on wire rack.
