While I prefer apple butter with homemade tortillas, eating apple butter bread is the next best thing. This is a pretty simple recipe and would be great with some morning coffee or milk don’t you think? This bread is MUCH better the next day, after it’s had time to settle and completely cool off. If you don’t let it cool off enough, it will fall apart. Also, make sure you check it at around 50 minutes to make sure it’s not already done. So many ovens are off their supposed temperature and I’d hate for you to burn it. It say one hour, but check at 50 minutes! Enjoy y’all!
Oh! And if you’re really wanting the best apple butter, you should make it homemade too. No pictures to show it off but darn tasty.
