This Apple Walnut Fritter Bread is insanely delicious loaded with apples and swirls of cinnamon.
This Apple Walnut Fritter Bread recipe is fantastic. It is packed with lots of swirls of cinnamon and slightly tart apples, topped with crunchy walnuts, and a sweet glaze drizzled over the top. And the aroma that fills your house with the cinnamon and apples baking. I think you need to find a good excuse to make this soon!
Last year I was fortunate enough to be able to write this recipe as a guest post for Mama Loves Food and now I want to share it with you guys.
I can’t believe that Fall is here already, summer just flew by. But I do love having the cooler temps and open windows and the smell of apples and pumpkin baking in the house.
Every year we make a trip up to Apple Hill. It is the full representation of Fall around here. people travel a long way to visit there. Not only can you get boxes of apples but they have every apple baked goodie that you can think of. Apple jelly, apple donuts, pies, breads, fritters, caramel apples, fresh cider, just to name a few
This Apple walnut fritter bread is a perfect breakfast or dessert, for the cool Autumn months that are fast approaching. For another delicious apple recipe, check out my Apple Pie Turnovers, one of my families favorites.
