I’m no stranger to the game of sweet potatoes, but I feel like it’s easy to neglect white potatoes. While they may get a bad rap in the nutrition world, they are a very nutrient-dense, healthy carbohydrate choice.

And I may be surprising you by saying that they make a lovely addition to this moist apple cinnamon bread!

Yes, this potato apple bread is made using white potatoes and whole wheat flour, making it a delicious whole wheat potato bread recipe. 

Since I had so much success and deliciousness with my healthy sweet potato bread, I figured I would test my hand at a white post bread recipe as a post-workout snack.

Ingredients in Healthy Apple Bread

Here are the wholesome ingredients we’re using to make this tasty apple potato bread.

How To Make Homemade Apple Potato Bread

Making this potato apple bread is very easy. 

• Preheat oven to 350 and grease 9×5 bread pan.
• Mix egg, mashed potatoes, coconut oil, greek yogurt and maple syrup. Whisk.
• In a separate bowl, mix dry ingredients (flour through baking soda).
• Mix wet into dry ingredients, adding in chopped apples last. 
• Bake for 47-50 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean.

Is Potato Apple Bread Healthy?

Because people have a skewed view of potatoes in general, they tend to think a potato bread recipe may not be the healthiest. 

Yet, this apple cinnamon quick bread recipe is very well-balanced. There is ample fiber and carbohydrates from the oats, potatoes and whole wheat flour, plus protein, calcium, and probiotics from the yogurt. 

Plus, provide several nutrients, like potassium, Vitamin C and B-Vitamins, which help produce energy you need to perform your best. 

Tips for Making Cinnamon Apple Quick Bread

When making this cinnamon apple quick bread recipe, consider these tips.

• Use Good Apples for Baking – The best apples for baking are firm tart and firm sweet apples. They produce a moist apple loaf, like in this recipe. I like gala, fuji or granny smith, but choose your favorites! I use similar apple varieties in these apple cinnamon overnight oats. 
• To store this homemade apple potato bread, let it cool completely and store in an airtight container or ziplock bag for up to two days. You can also refrigerate it, and it will last up to 4-5 days.
• This whole wheat potato bread with apples tastes great with cinnamon peanut butter slathered on. Butter or nutella would also be delicious!

Can You Freeze Whole Wheat Potato Bread?

This cinnamon apple bread recipe works great for freezing, so later you can thank yourself. 

Once it cools completely, place in a freezer-friendly bag or plastic wrap. I like to pre-slice it ahead of time and freeze in a few different bags for easy reheating.

To reheat, let thaw before serving, or heat up in the microwave or toaster. Slather with butter or peanut butter. Enjoy!

Store it for up to 3 months in the freezer. Reheat in the microwave, oven or toaster oven.
