How to Make Apple Cranberry And Walnut Bread

  1. Place 1 cup rolled oats into a bowl, pour over 1 cup milk (any kind) and let soak for 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and flour a 900g loaf tin.
  3. In a large bowl, sift together 2 cups all-purpose flour and 2 teaspoons baking powder.
  4. Add the soaked oat mixture, 1 cup dried cranberries, 1 cup chopped apple (peeled and cored), ¾ cup brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, 2 tablespoons honey, and mix well until just combined.
  5. Spoon the batter into the prepared loaf tin and sprinkle evenly with ½ cup chopped walnuts.
  6. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and the bread is golden brown.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
