What Does Apple Cinnamon Bread Taste Like?
Imagine a soft vanilla cake crossed with a cozy cinnamon loaf, then add tender chunks of fresh apple.
That’s pretty much what you get.
The apples become soft and juicy as they bake, while cinnamon brings a warm, slightly spicy sweetness. The outside develops a lovely golden crust, but the inside stays moist and tender.
For an extra special finish, serve a warm slice with a little butter.
Oh my goodness.
