Hello Fall! Even though it’s still August, I’m ready for Fall – it’s my favorite season with the crisp and colorful leaves, cool evenings, sweaters and boots – and don’t forget all things apple and pumpkin!
When I went by my mom’s house yesterday, she sent me home with a bag full of apples from her tree. We only buy apples every once in a while (to mix up the fruits the kids have so they don’t get bored of them and leave them on the counter too long) and I had just sent James to the store that morning with apples on the grocery list.
So I knew I had to come up with several recipes to use up all these apples, which is fine by my family because they love them just as much as I do!
I hope you enjoy this quick and easy Apple Cinnamon Bread recipe this season! And if your family is anything like mine, the two loaves this recipe makes won’t last through the night.
Granny Smith apples are generally the best apples for baking but you can use any. I had Red Delicious on hand so that’s what I used in this recipe and it turned out great!
