• Heat ¼ cup of water to 100 degrees. Add yeast and set aside for until foaming. This took me about 30 mins.
• Mix all dry ingredients for the dough. Combine yeast, coconut oil and milk.
• Vigorously mix ingredients by hand for 10 minutes or stand mixer for 5 minutes to help activate gum.
• Cover bowl and let dough rest for 10 minutes.
• Wash and dice apples. *peel if desired. Set aside until needed.
• Lightly spray a sheet of parchment paper the size of a baking sheet. Place dough on the parchment paper. Spray dough with olive oil spray.
• With greased hands, gently press out dough to form a rectangle approximately 12x16 inches.
• Sprinkle cinnamon and brown sugar over dough.
• Slice dough into 5-6 equal rows lengthwise (right to left) and 3-4 equal columns width wise (top to bottom).
• Spray a 9 x 5 inch bread pan with olive oil spray.
• Carefully move a dough square into bread pan, filling the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle with apple bites.
• Make another layer. Take squares of dough and make another later. Sprinkle with apple bites.
• Continue until you have used all (or most of) the dough and as much apple pieces as you would like. *Don't over stuff though, the dough will need to rise.
• Cover with plastic and allow bread to rest for 20 minutes. (your dough may rise, it may not at this stage. Mine didn't rise until baking).
• Bake at 375 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until top turns golden brown.
• Remove from oven and allow to sit in the pan to steam another 10 mins.
• Remove from pan and top with glaze if desired.
