Calling all apple lovers…. have I got a loaf for you! 🙂 I think this might just be my new favorite recipe. It is packed with apple chunks and just enough caramel flavor to sweeten it up. The whole time this was in my oven my mouth was watering and my tummy was rumbling from the smell! This loaf is 5 smart points per slice, and since its packed with apple chunks it definitely leaves you feeling satisfied.

How do you think it would be without the Carmel sauce? Don’t have any on hand. And does it reduce the points not using it?
Hi Melissa, I think it will still be a yummy apple loaf without, I doubt the points would change, the sauce does not add many..
