Instructions
- Preheat & prep: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment—no sticking, no drama.
- Mix dry stuff: In a bowl, whisk together oat flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar. Smells like fall already, right?
- Mix wet stuff: In another bowl, beat eggs with applesauce, milk, melted coconut oil, and vanilla until smooth and cheerful-looking.
- Combine: Pour wet ingredients into dry and stir until just combined. Don’t overmix, unless you want a brick.
- Fold in apples: Gently fold in chopped apples (and nuts if you’re fancy). Make sure they’re evenly spread—nobody likes apple clumps.
- Pour & smooth: Transfer batter to your loaf pan, smooth the top with a spatula, and admire your masterpiece for a second.
- Bake: Pop it in the oven for 45–55 minutes. Toothpick check at 50 mins—comes out clean = done.
- Cool: Let it rest in the pan for 10 mins, then move to a wire rack. Cutting too early? You’ll get crumbs. But that’s also kind of fun.
