This Apple Cider Donut Bread without Milk is the perfect sweet treat. Filled with tons of apple flavor and cinnamon spice, it will not only taste delicious but smell amazing.
- 2 cups gluten free flour
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/2 cup salted butter, softened
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup dark brown sugar, packed
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup apple cider
Cinnamon Swirl Filling
- 1/3 cup dark brown sugar, packed
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
Cinnamon Sugar Topping
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar, for topping
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon, for topping
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a loaf pan with parchment paper
Add the apple cider to a small saucepan and heat over medium heat. You will be stirring constantly until it reduces to about 1/2 cup
Once the apple cider has reduced, remove from heat and set aside to cool
In a large mixing bowl, combine the butter and dark brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2 minutes)
Add in the eggs and vanilla extract
Mix until fully combined
Alternate adding in 1/3 of the flour and the reduced apple cider
Add in the baking soda, baking powder and spices with the last round of flour
Mix until just combined
Combine the dark brown sugar and cinnamon to make the cinnamon swirl layer
Add about 2/3 of the Apple Cider Donut Bread batter into the lined loaf pan
Add the brown sugar and cinnamon layer on top of the batter
Pour the remaining batter on top and smooth into an even layer
Now let's make the cinnamon sugar topping. Combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in a bowl
Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar in an even layer over the batter until it fully covers the batter so that none is showing
Put into the oven and bake for 45 to 50 minutes. You will know it's done when a toothpick comes out of the center clean
Let cool completely for 1-2 hours before slicing
Enjoy!
