Because the apples sit, the sugar and salt assist them launch their scrumptious liquid (I exploit this similar technique when making our favorite apple pie). This liquid is then combined with the remaining substances to make a flavorful, moist bread.
After 10 to fifteen minutes, stir the remaining substances, pour the batter right into a loaf pan, and bake.
