Fall means colorful leaves and cooler weather, but it also means apples. The crisper temperatures and autumn leaves make baking apples all the more "appealing!" And, when you use applesauce, it's even easier to bake up something amazing. Take this cinnamon applesauce bread recipe, for example. It's like fall in bread form!
Using chunky applesauce in this delicious bread recipe means moisture and sweetness with no added sugar. The mascarpone cheese adds a smooth, velvety texture along with a bit of protein. Check out the health benefits of apples and the health benefits of protein.
To make this not-too-sweet fall loaf, you'll need to gather these simple ingredients: eggs, mascarpone cheese, chunky cinnamon applesauce, flour, baking powder and salt. The chopped walnuts are optional. You simply mix up the batter then bake until it's golden brown. So easy!
Cooking Tip: You can use store-bought chunky applesauce or make your own homemade applesauce. If your chunky applesauce has liquid in it, drain it first.
Serve this autumn apple bread for a lovely breakfast or for a weekend brunch with your favorite warm beverage. It makes a cozy snack any time during the day, and a delicious dessert, too. For an extra fall flavor boost, sprinkle some cinnamon on top!

Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup mascarpone cheese, softened
- 1 cup chunky cinnamon applesauce
- 1 3/4 cups flour (all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
Here's how to make it:
- In a large mixing bowl, add the eggs and mascarpone cheese. Whisk to blend.
- Add the chunky applesauce and stir to blend.
- Add the flour, baking powder and salt. Mix well to combine. Fold in the walnuts, if using. (You can use all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour. I used GF 1:1 flour.)
- Evenly spread the batter into an 8x4-inch loaf pan that's been lined with parchment paper. (For some extra fall flavor, top with a sprinkle of cinnamon.)
- Bake at 350 degrees F for about 40 to 50 minutes, or until it passes the toothpick test. (If the loaf is getting too brown on top, cover it with aluminum foil.)
- Allow loaf to cool to room temperature before slicing and serving. Store the bread in an airtight container. This bread is extra delicious when toasted in a toaster oven or regular oven.
