This applesauce bread is a healthy vegan and gluten free quick bread full of cinnamon flavor! Made with no milk, no butter, and no eggs, this moist and tender apple bread uses just one bowl!
Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Grease a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, add your flour, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, baking soda, and baking powder, and mix well. In a separate bowl, whisk together your oil, apple cider vinegar, applesauce, and water until combined.
Combine your wet and dry ingredients together. Fold through your raisins/nuts of choice. Transfer to the loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a skewer comes out just clean.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, before carefully transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
