I like making quick breads in bundt pans because I think it is the largest quantity of servings for the least maintenance of a pan. Muffins are a bit high maintenance for greasing and cleaning the pan. Loaf pans are better, but I think a bundt pan is the largest and the fastest. For this reason I like breakfasts bread recipes that are written for a bundt pan for weekday breakfasts.
This quick bread is a beloved one because it’s like an apple fritter. Or you could even make apple-upside-down cake comparisons. It is incredible warm from the often and beloved to make during autumn.
APPLE FRITTER QUICK BREAD
Serves twelve
5 apples, peeled and sliced thinly
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/3 cup brown sugar
3 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
2 cups applesauce
1/2 cup butter, melted
3/4 cup apple cider or milk
4 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Place apples in a stand mixer bowl with cinnamon and brown sugar and mix. I like to let the apples get broken up and be a bit more piece-y, but you can also stir lightly and keep them as whole slices. Place apples into base of a greased bundt pan.
In a stand mixer, stir together flour, sugar, salt, baking soda, nutmeg, applesauce, butter, apple cider, eggs, and vanilla.
Pour batter over apples in bundt pan. Bake for 60 minutes. Allow to cool before turning out and slicing.
