Ok! So I have tried the bread....LOVELY and if I cannot improve the texture be any more moist, I am STILL keeping it and making it a constant in this home. Am going to try to try some of the other reviewers ideas for moistness but this bread in no way is a disappointment. FABULOUS new family fall tradition.

I followed the advice of a few of the other commenters below and subbed brown sugar for half the white sugar. The bread is sweet without being overwhelming, moist and very tasty.

Pretty good, just remember to chop the apples really fine.

Good recipe. I did use suggestion from others and used half brown and white sugar, half oil half butter, and nutmeg instead of cloves, although I'm not sure how much effect it has. Might try just as written next time. I baked in two smaller loaf pans and reduced the time to 45min. Also thought a crumb top would be good so I mixed a butter, sugar, flour crumb topping and put it on before baking. Came out great. Will make again.

Loved it! I added an extra apple, used 1/2 white and 1/2 brown sugar, and substituted nutmeg for cloves. Very delicious and moist.

Excellent base recipe. I had ripe pears on hand, so used them (with the skin on), nixxed the spices, added a dash of nutmeg and 1 tsp vanilla. YUM!

Enjoyed this apple bread but agree with previous comments that adding part brown sugar would improve it. As well, I think it needs some vegetable oil or perhaps sour cream to moisten the bread. I didn't have cloves so used nutmeg instead. I wish that I had used more cinnamon as well to increase the flavour.

This was delicious! I followed some of the other reviews as well - used just half a stick of butter and 1/4 cup oil. Added 1/4 tsp nutmeg and ginger powder. I was going to add a third apple, but when I went to mix it in, there was plenty with just 2 apples as stated in the recipe.
