How to Make Apple Granola Loaf

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup rolled oats, ½ cup chopped walnuts, ½ cup packed brown sugar, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, ½ cup maple syrup, ½ cup vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 cup grated apple.
  4. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  6. For the topping: Combine ¼ cup rolled oats, ¼ cup chopped walnuts, 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon melted butter. Sprinkle evenly over the batter.
  7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
