Apple Almond Raisin Quick Bread With Brown Butter Glaze Recipes

APPLE-ALMOND-COCONUT QUICK BREAD WITH LEMON GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly brush one 9-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan or three 6-by-3-by-2-inch mini loaf pans with melted butter and set aside.
• Combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, baking soda, cinnamon and nutmeg in a medium bowl. Add the coconut and almonds and toss together. Set aside.
• Whisk together the melted butter, yogurt, vanilla extract, eggs and grated zest if using in a small bowl. Stir in the shredded apples. Fold this mixture into the dry ingredients until just incorporated.
• Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan(s). Tap the bottom on a hard surface a few times and smooth the top. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 55 to 60 minutes for the regular and 35 to 40 minutes for the minis. Transfer to a wire rack to cool for 30 minutes, then turn the bread out and let cool completely on the rack.
• Whisk together the confectioners' sugar, milk and lemon zest and juice in a small bowl.
• Pour the glaze over the bread and allow to set at room temperature, 15 to 20 minutes. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

APPLE BUTTER BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 8x4x2-inch loaf pan.
• Mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, nutmeg, and cloves in a bowl.
• Beat the butter and sugar with an electric mixer in a separate large bowl until smooth. Add the egg and apple butter; continue beating until smooth. Mix in the flour mixture until just incorporated. Fold in the raisins and walnuts; mixing just enough to evenly combine. Pour into prepared loaf pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 40 to 50 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

APPLE RAISIN QUICK BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°. In a bowl, beat oil, eggs and vanilla. Combine flour, sugar, cinnamon, salt, baking soda, cloves and baking powder; beat into the egg mixture.

Cool 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.

APPLE BUTTER ALMOND BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F, grease a loaf pan.
• In a large mixing bowl combine brown sugar, honey, apple butter, almond butter, egg replacer and almond milk until well blended.
• Add the flours, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and spice, stir in until just mixed.
• Fold in almonds and half the cereal.
• Spread in the prepared pan and top with remaining cereal.

SOURDOUGH APPLE ALMOND RAISIN BREAD

Steps:

• Addition Prep
• You can use pre-made apple sauce, or you can peel and core two apples, and then cook and mash the pieces. If using the microwave to cook the apples, simply put small pieces in a glass bowl, cover, and cook until they're soft enough to mash. If using a saucepan, you can cook the apple pieces in the 50g of water listed under Additions, rather than adding that water in later when mixing up the Addition.
• Combine all of the ingredients in the Additions list in a small bowl, and set it aside to cool. The raisins and nuts will soak up some of the liquid.
• Dough Mixing and Bulk Fermentation
• In a large bowl, mix together the flour, water, and starter. Note the time and temperature as this is the start of bulk fermentation. Don't add the additions yet.
• Cover and let the dough rest for about 30 minutes, and then stretch and fold the dough, going around the bowl several times until the dough is tighter. Click here to see a video of stretching and folding, as well as other forms of gluten development.
• Cover and let the dough rest another 20-30 minutes, then add the Additions to the dough by folding or laminating them in (see the previous link for a lamination video as well).
• Let the dough ferment until it's puffy and close to doubled. For my dough, this was about 10.5 hours at 71F room temperature.
• Pre-shape, Bench Rest, and Shaping
• Scrape the dough out onto a floured countertop. Sprinkle flour on the top of the dough and press it into a rectangular shape about 3/4 inch thick. Fold the dough in thirds and then in half. (See the gallery below for photos.)
• Cover the dough with an inverted bowl and let it rest about 20 minutes.
• Prepare a tea towel with flour and a layer of bran flakes in a circle or oval, depending on the shape of your baking vessel and final loaf. You can also spray your banneton with oil and coat it with bran flakes, or simply flour your banneton/liner and skip the bran flake coating on the bread crust.
• Flip over your dough and shape it into a boule, batard, or oblong loaf. Shaping videos can be found here.
• Using a bench scraper, flip the shaped dough onto the tea towel (or into your prepped banneton). Then lift the towel and place it into your banneton. The base of the bread should be facing up.
• Final Proof and Baking
• Cover and proof the dough at room temperature for 1-2 hours, or in your refrigerator overnight (8-14 hours).
• Preheat your oven and baking vessel to 500F for 30 minutes.
• Gently flip the dough out of the banneton and into the bottom of your baking vessel or onto parchment paper first for an easier transfer.
• Score the top of the dough, then cover the vessel and return it to the oven.
• Bake at:
• 500F for 20 minutes lid on
• 450F for 10 minutes lid on
• 450F for 10 minutes lid off
• The internal temperature of the bread should be at least 205F when it's done.
• Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool a minimum of 2 hours before cutting.

APPLE-CINNAMON BREAD WITH GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon flour.
• Prepare glaze: mix confectioners' sugar, milk, butter, and vanilla together in a small bowl. Place in the refrigerator to chill.
• Prepare bread: stir white sugar, butter, brown sugar, and egg together in a medium bowl.
• Sift flour, cinnamon, and baking soda together in another bowl. Slowly incorporate the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients. Stir in chopped apples. Pour batter evenly into the prepared loaf pan.
• Prepare streusel: combine brown sugar, flour, butter, and cinnamon in a small bowl. Mix with a fork until crumb-like and sprinkle evenly on top of the batter.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Let cool on a cooling rack for about 15 minutes.
• Remove the glaze from the refrigerator and pour into a zip-top bag. Cut a tiny hole in the tip of the bag and drizzle glaze over the bread.

APPLE BUTTER BREAD

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, combine the apple butter, cinnamon and cloves.
• Whisk in the water, then oil, then brown sugar, then the eggs (not all together). Mix until smooth.
• Sift together (important so you don't get white lumps in your dark bread), flour, baking soda and salt. Then combine with the apple butter mixture and mix until smooth.
• Pour into a greased 9-inch loaf pan or 3 to 4 mini-loaf pans.
• Bake at 350F for 65-70 minutes for the 9-inch pan or 45-50 minutes for the mini-loaves.
• Let stand for 10-15 minutes to cool slightly before removing from the pans and letting cool completely on a wire rack.
