Recipe: Apple Cinnamon Bread

We love banana bread and banana muffins but after a while, the kids start complaining "banana muffin again?" So yesterday we tried this apple cinnamon bread recipe from Two Peas & Their Pod.   The recipe was so easy to follow and uses every day ingredients that are in my refrigerator/pantry.

This is what it looked like when I made it.  I need a shorter pan.


This is what it looked like when they made it:

The recipe says to let it cool for 10 min and then take it out.  It started to crumble a bit so I cut the loaf in two.


That's ok though... it was just for us


Had to fancy it up a little for the kids.


 Le Yum!
