When I saw this recipe, I was so excited. I’ve made this bread 3 times now, and every time…….. is a flop. I don’t know if there is an error in the recipe, but I have tried 3 times with the same result. It is just overly mushy inside. The second time, I cooked it 20 mins longer. The 3rd time I cooked it 20 mins longer then before, and each time the same result. So I concluded that I didn’t undercook it, there must just not be enough flour in it. Could you double check the recipe? I really really want to try this!
Angie Holden says
I just double checked everything and it is correct. I am thinking maybe your apples are larger than mine. Cooking with apples can be tricky. Try cutting the amount of mushed apple in half. 🙂

What kind of apples?
