Apple Walnut Bread

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F/180°C, combi steam setting. If your oven has variable humidity, use 30% here (if not, don’t worry! Just set to combi steam at the correct temperature and the oven will work out the humidity for you). Grease and line a 9x5 inch (23x13cm) loaf pan with parchment paper and set aside.

Step 2

Whisk the melted butter with the eggs and yoghurt.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, baking soda, cinnamon and ginger. Pour in the wet mixture and stir until it’s almost (but not quite!) combined. Stop when there are a few streaks of flour and a few lumps left.

Step 4

Add the diced apple and nuts and fold through. Make sure the mixture is fully combined with no streaks of flour, but don't overmix it.

Step 5

Pour into the lined pan, smooth the top and bake until the loaf is deep golden brown and tests clean with a skewer, about 45 minutes.

Step 6

Leave to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before turning out onto a rack to cool completely.
