Join me in the kitchen as I bake up this healthy flourless apple bread!
Amazing Apple Flavor in Every Bite
Make this delicious bread from staples you have in your pantry. With amazing apple flavor in every bite, there’s no added salt, specialty gluten-free flours or coconut oil in it, either. Of course, if you want to make truly a gluten-free apple bread recipe, be sure to use gluten-free oats.
This recipe will have you stocking up on apples and baking a loaf every chance you get. Full of healthy fiber (yay whole grains!), it’s healthy, delicious, and super easy to make. If you’re looking for something a little more decadent, my Baked Apple Fritters are always a hit. And these Apple Nachos are the perfect way to enjoy a sweet apple treat that’s so easy and so delicious.
Blender is Better
Just like my other flourless bread recipes, the batter for this bread is mixed in the blender (this is a no-stir recipe, friends). The blender is a must because the oats need to be well blended with all of the other wet and dry ingredients to get that great texture once the bread bakes.
Once baked, you’ll have a moist, tender loaf of apple bread that’s perfectly sweetened from the apple and honey and spiced just right from the cinnamon. The flavor and texture is so comforting and leaves you feeling great!
A big slice of this fresh apple bread with a spread of peanut butter and drizzle of honey is one of my favorite ways to start the day. It fills me up and gives me the energy I need to get the kids to school, workout and tackle my morning to-do list. And, let’s be honest, it tastes like dessert!
It’s also one of our favorite afternoon snacks that keeps us satisfied until dinner.
Each time I enjoy a slice of this bread, I’m truly amazed how tender and tasty it is given how healthy it is. It more than satisfies my bread cravings.

What Do I Need to Make Flourless Fresh Apple Bread?
- Apples (about 1.25 pounds)
- Honey
- Old-fashioned or quick-cooking oats
- Large eggs
- Vanilla extract
- Baking soda
- Ground cinnamon
How to Make Healthy Flourless Fresh Apple Bread
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease 9×5-inch loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
- Core and slice the apples. No need to peel unless you want or need to. Add the apple chunks to the blender. Feel free to use your favorite apple. I love using Honeycrisp, Braeburn or Granny Smith.
- Add the rest of ingredients to a powerful blender and blend until smooth and well combined. Important: Try not to over-blend the batter as this will cause the oats to warm and start cooking into oatmeal which will hinder the loaf from baking with a bread-like texture.
- Pour the mixture into prepared loaf pan.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. If the loaf starts to brown more on top before the center is done, tint it with foil until baked all the way through.
- Let loaf cool completely in loaf pan (I don’t recommend transferring to a wire rack to cool).
How to Store Fresh Apple Bread
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftover bread in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
To freeze bread, first let it cool completely. Then wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, and put it into a freezer-safe baggie before storing in the freezer. Wrap the bread as airtight as possible. When stored properly in the freezer, bread will maintain great quality for 2-3 months.
To thaw, let it sit, loosely covered, on the counter for several hours.

What are the calories per serving? I cant seem to find it
I don’t provide nutritional information at this time because everyone uses different brands of ingredients which often have differing nutritional values. I would recommend plugging the ingredients you used into a free online nutrition calculator like: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/recipe/calculator Hope this helps. Enjoy!
Thank you for sharing this delicious recipe. It’s so easy, simple, and yummy! I had to alter your recipe a little bit because I’m on liver detox and can’t have sugar. So I substitute honey with coconut oil (same ratio) and hope that it would work! It did!! Make it even healthier 🙂
My goodness! This is delicious 🙂 Made it for baby but I can’t stop eating it. I baked it with maple syrup, 2 Granny Smith and 1 pear. Yum!
Made this bread as directed and it was delicious! I should have covered it and cooked it a few minutes longer but besides that it was sweet and yummy. Having peanut butter and honey on it even better!
I’m going sugarless and flourless and found this bread was a perfect substitute!!!
I love this! The bread came out delicious tonight I’m making 2 more and I added dark chocolate chips on top of 1 of them! Thank you!
Hi on the flourless apple bread, i made and had to cook it slightly longer in my oven. Tastes nice, my only thing is, is that it came out really sticky with outside crust, not sure where i went wrong. I used cooking apples instead of ordinary, they were only ones on hand.
Hi Tizziana! It might have something to do with the apples you used as they could have been sweeter and moister causing the crust and top to be sticky. Happy to hear it tasted great though!
Not quite the apple bread concept I had in mind, but it’s an imaginative recipe and the low fat-sugar-dairy aspect is appealing so many thanks. The batter had a good consistency and looked like your picture when it went into the oven. It wasn’t quite done after 30 minutes so I gave it 2 more. The result is more like ok than wow. It’s somewhat rubbery and more solid than yours looks. I’m pretty sure you’d have tweaked the recipe before publishing if you’d gotten my result. Any idea how I can make it better? I’d like to try it again.
I tried the apple bread recipe yesterday .
I was wondering if might have put too much oats ? I measured in table spoons and I put 20.
I ‘m Italian and I struggle with cup measurements.
For the baking powered i/o baking soda is the ratio 4 tea spoons ?
Hi Elisa! There are 16 tablespoons in a cup so you would need 32 tablespoons (2 cups) of oats for this recipe. And to substitute the 1 teaspoon baking soda, I would recommend 2-3 teaspoons of baking powder. Too much baking powder will give a bad taste to the bread. Hope this helps.
Made as muffins. Sooooo good! Just so easy for kids’ breakfasts before school throughout the week. I toss some chia seeds in there too for an extra kick ????
Just made this! My children thoroughly enjoyed it. Super moist and will definitely be making more. I also subbed the apples with a ripe plantain, omitted the honey and made a delicious plantain bread❤️
Thank you for this!
