Apple Butter Bread

This is a super short post to share a great bread machine recipe with you all. I couldn't snag very many decent pics because it is very overcast and the natural light available is pretty much NIL. Yes, I have artificial lighting but I had no desire to haul it out today and set it up.

I had some apple butter left over from a recent recipe and wanted to test it out in a yeast bread. What a great baking ingredient . Turned out beautifully. What I love most about the recipe is the fact that it is all made in the breadmaker. No kneading for me and as my arthritis is flaring lately that is a good thing !

The loaf rose up perfectly and has a superb sweet taste. This is amazing toasted and slathered with , you guessed it, some more apple butter . I would also think this would be incredible as sandwich bread with roasted pork. Can you imagine that ?! I can.

An easy and delicious recipe that puts to good use the sweet flavors of apple butter

RECIPE:

WHAT YOU NEED

1 cup water at room temperature
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 cup apple butter
2 tablespoons oil
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 cups bread flour
1 1/2 teaspoons of yeast

MAKE IT


ADD the following ingredients, in the order above, to your bread machine
SET breadmaker to 1.5 lb regular white bread loaf setting

YUM !

  10. We have two jars of unopened apple butter in the fridge at work. People keep bringing them in but nobody ever uses them. I've been looking for recipes to use them. This bread looks perfect. Thanks for sharing on Sweet Indulgences Sunday.
