Apple Bread

Jump to recipe!

It’s that time of year – time to head to the apple orchard, pick apples and enjoy all the recipes that are available right now. We are blessed to have many apple orchards here in Northwest Indiana and they are ready for picking.

Last year we shared a few recipes for Apple Week and had such a good time, we thought we would expand it a few more days and also share recipes on Pocket Change Gourmet.

This Apple Bread boasts all the flavors of Fall with delicious Fuji apples and apple pie spice.

Quick bread is definitely some of the easiest bread you can make. Typically the bread goes together in minutes and has many different flavors, a couple of my favorites are Pumpkin Bread and Zucchini Bread, I have made both many, many times and we love them.

  1. Liz, I have had this recipe saved for a long time. I am SO GLAD I finally made it. This apple bread took me back to my childhood – tastes like the apple cake my grandmother used to make. It is now a new family favorite and I will make every Fall! Thanks Liz!!

      Thanks for letting me know!

  2. This apple bread is fabulous! I couldn’t find my mom’s recipe which she’s made for decades – and this is almost identical. We add walnuts, raisins, and chocolate chips – and it’s a wonderful fall/Christmas decadent bread. Thanks for this recipe – it’s delicious!

    1. I’m excited you liked it Jessica! Thanks for stopping by and letting us know!
