This sounds wonderful. I will definitely be giving it a try. I just bought a bunch of apples (assorted varieties) from my local co-op. I have been freezing some for apple pie filling, making applesauce and other goodies and of course eating them fresh.
Ingredients:
- 1 c brown sugar
- 1 c sour cream
- 2 eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 2 c flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 c peeled and finely diced granny smith apples
- 1 c chopped pecans
DRIZZLE:
- 1/4 c brown sugar
- 1/4 c butter
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Grease the bottom and sides of the loaf pan.
- Peel and chop apples, cover and set aside.
- 2 Combine 1 cup of brown sugar with the sour cream, eggs, and vanilla in large mixing bowl; beat on low speed until well blended.
- Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; beat on low until all ingredients are mixed evenly.
- 3 Add the apples and half of the pecans to the dough; fold in until evenly distributed.
- Pour the dough into the grease loaf pan; pat down evenly. Sprinkle the top with the remaining pecans; press the pecans slightly into the top of the dough.
- 4 Place in the preheated oven and bake for 50 to 60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 20 minutes before removing from the loaf pan. Place on a wire rack to finish cooling
- 5 Drizzle:
- Combine the brown sugar and butter in a small saucepan. Over medium heat, bring the mixture to a boil.
- Once it is boiling, turn the heat to low and let the sauce simmer for about one minute until it thickens; stir constantly.
- Remove from the heat and drizzle over the top of the bread. The bread does not have to be cooled before drizzling the sauce over it.
- Some sauce will drizzle down the sides but try not to let much drizzle off if it does, try spooning it up and drizzle back over the bread.
