Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and diced (about 1 1/2 cups)
1/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
In a large bowl, beat the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and eggs together until smooth and creamy.
Add the vegetable oil, Greek yogurt, and vanilla extract to the wet ingredients and mix until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the diced apples and chopped walnuts (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the loaf from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
Transfer the loaf to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
