T&T apple quick bread
Comments (3)Laurie, I made this recipe a couple of weeks ago. I doubled it and it was really good. I make quick breads all the time and when cool, cut in pretty thick slices....at least an inch thick. Pkg in sandwich bags and stored in the freezer. Kim grabs one every morning to eat at work. Tides her over from 7am to 12 or 1pm. Raw Apple Bread CF--Readinglady [Beard's comment: "A rather unusual baking powder bread that you will find delightfully textured and interesting in color and flavor. It keeps very well and, as a matter of fact, will be better if left to mature for at least 24 hours. It is a fine bread to give as a gift."] (1 large loaf) 1/2 cup butter or margarine 1 cup granulated sugar 2 eggs 2 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon double-acting baking powder 2 tablespoons buttermilk or soured milk 1 cup coarsely chopped, unpeeled apples 1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts or pecans 1 teaspoon vanilla extract or grated lemon rind Cream the butter or margarine, add the sugar slowly, and continue to beat until light and lemon-colored. Beat in the eggs. Sift the flour with the salt, baking soda and baking powder. Add to the creamed mixture alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Stir in the apples, nuts and vanilla or lemon rind. Butter a 9 or 10x5x3-inch loaf pan. Spoon the batter into the tin and bake in a preheated 350-degree oven 50-60 minutes, until the loaf pulls away slightly from the sides of the tin or until a straw or cake tester inserted in the loaf comes out clean. Cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then loosen from the pan and turn out on a rack to cool completely before slicing. VARIATION: Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon chopped nuts on top of the batter before baking. Nancy...See MoreQuestion about baking miniature loaves of sweet breads
Comments (6)Oops, it's Butterscotch, not Vanilla pudding. Natal, I just have this fear of the loaves falling over without a baking sheet, even though I've done it before but not the amount I plan to bake. Okay, no baking sheet then. Bumble, they're quick breads. Here's the recipe for the Pumpkin Bread courtesy of Kraft Magazine. I bet the texture of this is dreamy! Pumpkin Bread 2 1/2 c. Flour 2 t. Baking Soda 1/2 t. Salt 1 t. Cinnamon 1 t. Nutmeg 1 sm. box Instant Lemon Pudding Mix 1 sm. box Instant Butterscotch Pudding Mix 1 c. chopped Pecans 1 15oz. can Solid Pack Pumpkin 2 c. Sugar 1 1/2 c. Vegetable Oil 5 Eggs In large bowl mix first 8 ingredients and set aside. In separate bowl, mix Pumpkin and remaining 3 ingredients until smooth. Combine both mixtures and pour into greased loaf pans. (Makes 16 mini pans) Preheat oven to 350 and bake for approximately (mini pans) 20-25 min. Larger loaf pans will take longer to bake....See MoreBaking quick/tea breads in a cake pan?
Comments (5)Thanks for the input. Tricia, I never thought of just measuring the amount of water each pan holds. Duh! Fori, I know I have an 8x8 pan on hand. Not sure about a 9x9. I will try an 8x8 pan first. Then work from there. I went shopping today and picked up some ripe bananas for banana bread and some greenish ones for eating. I'd like to give the banana bread a try tomorrow....See MoreQuick Breads
Comments (13)Pumpkin Bread 2/3 cup shortening 2-2/3 cup sugar 4 eggs 1 can (15 oz) pure pumpkin 2/3 cup water (or use cider) 3-1/2 cup flour 2 tsp. soda 1-1/2 tsp salt 1/2 tsp baking powder 1 tsp cinnamon 1 tsp cloves 2/3 cup coarsely chopped nuts 2/3 cup raisins Heat oven to 350. Grease 2 loaf pans. Cream shortening and sugar thoroughly. Add eggs, pumpkin and water. Blend in dry ingredients, except nuts and raisins. Stir in nuts and raisins after batter has been mixed well. Bake 60-70 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. I think I set my timer for 50 minutes and then checked it, but don't remember if I had to cook longer than that or not. This is my favorite pumpkin bread recipe, and is wonderful with a cream cheese and lemon and sugar glaze on it. Rosie's Banana Bread 1/2 cup oil 2 eggs 3/4 cup mashed bananas 1 cup sugar 1-1/4 cup flour 1 tsp. soda 1/2 tsp salt Preheat oven to 350. Mix oil, eggs, and bananas with sugar. Sift dry ingredients and add. Bake 50 minutes in heavily greased and floured pan. This is a very, very moist bread, so good greasing and flouring of the pan is necessary. I also add 1 cup chopped walnuts to this. This, again, is the best banana bread recipe I have found. Cherry Zucchini Bread 2 eggs 1 tsp. ground cinnamon 3/4 cup granulated sugar 1/2 tsp baking soda 1/3 cup vegetable oil 1/4 tsp. salt 1/3 cup lemon juice 2/3 cup shredded, unpeeled zucchini 1/4 cup water 2/3 cup dried tart cherries 2 cups all purpose flour 1 Tbs. grated lemon peel 2 tsp. baking powder Put eggs in a large mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on med. speed 3-4 minutes, or until eggs are thick and lemon colored. Add sugar, oil, lemon juice, and water and mix well. Combine flouyr baking powder, cinnamon, soda and salt. Add flour mixture to egg mixture and mix well. Stir in zucchin, cherries, and lemon peel. Grease and flour the bottom only of a loaf pan. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake in preheated oven 55-65 minutes, or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Makes 1 loaf. I could not find my zucchini, apple, or cranberry quick bread recipes, but if you really want them, just let me know and I will dig deeper. Have a happy Thanksgiving! Sherry...See Moremayflowers
