We had some apples that weren't going to be eaten in time, so I googled for a suitable apple bread recipe, and found the following recipe. I substituted 1c wholemeal flour, used yoghurt instead of buttermilk, added a hint of cinnamon, and spread the mixture over three loaf tins to help it fit into lunchboxes better.
