The Baking Bloggers are sharing quick bread recipes today......
Sue of Palatable Pastime invites us to bake with her on the second Monday of each month.  This month she asked us to share a quick bread or tea bread recipe.  Let's see what everyone baked up.......


Apple Pumpkin Bread

I happened to have half a can of pumpkin puree left from when I made this Pumpkin Cornbread for dinner one evening.  I guess I could have used that for my quick bread recipe LOL.  However, when I think of tea breads I think of something a little fancier than a rustic cornbread, regardless of how delicious it was.

I also have a crisper drawer full of Michigan apples that we stock up on each fall so I wanted to incorporate them into this recipe.  The result was this scrumptious, moist and tender bread that we enjoyed for breakfast over the weekend.  I hope that you enjoy it as well.
