BREAKFAST APPLE BRAN LOAF

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease a 9x5 loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
• Into a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs and buttermilk and whisk well to combine. Add the grated apple, melted butter and vanilla and stir to mix. Add the bran cereal and let it sit for 5 minutes to absorb liquid.

• Pour the batter into the prepared pan, it should come up no more than 3/4 way up the pan. Sprinkle the top of the loaf with a handful of oat bran and brown or turbinado sugar. Bake on the middle rack for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick in the center comes out clean. Allow it to cool completely before removing it from the pan.
