I always add apple pie spice to apple bread (cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, alspice)Can i use apples instead of bananas in a banana bread recipe?
If you have apples, these are really good.








Morning Glory Muffins





2 cups flour


1 陆 cups sugar


2 tsp baking soda


陆 tsp salt


2 tsp cinnamon


3 lg carrots, grated


陆 cup nuts, chopped


陆 cup coconut


1 apple peeled and grated


3 eggs


1 cup oil


2 tsp vanilla


陆 cup raisins








Mix dry ingredients together. Stir in carrots, raisins, apple, nuts and coconut. Beat eggs with oil and vanilla. Stir in to dry ingredients until combined. Fill greased muffin tins 2/3 full. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes.



Definately!! Cook your apples up, peeled, and basically it's like using apple sauce instead of banana mush!! I do it all the time with any fruit (peaches are great too!). You could add some raisins if you like, and I like a cinnamon mix with a bit of ginger, cloves and cardamon (just a pich of cloves and cardamon). I know it will taste great!!
Yes you can, Cook the apples first to make a sauce, Then combine them in the bread mixture and bake as you would if it was banana bread.


You could also add a crumb topping!!
Probably some sugar and nutmeg, too. Cook the apples a while first to soften them up.
no, crazy, bananas are the main thing in banana bread
why not just do search for Apple Cinnamon Bread? There are tone of recipes out there.
