APPLE BUTTER BANANA BREAD

This apple butter banana bread is delicious!

I love to bake this bread when the fall season arrives. It includes two of my favorite things…banana bread and apple butter.  It’s so easy and full of flavor. If you like apple butter I think this will quickly become one of your favorites. Soft banana bread with a ribbon of apple butter through it…what’s not to love!?

Apple Butter Banana Bread

1 cup sugar

1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened

2 eggs, beaten

3 bananas, mashed

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 cup chopped nuts, pecans

1/2 cup of apple butter ( I use Musselmans Apple Butter)

1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon of vanilla

Preheat oven to 350. Mix butter, sugar, eggs, and bananas with mixer.  Add flour, baking soda and chopped nuts. Spread half the mixture in a 9X5 greased loaf pan. Mix apple butter, cinnamon and vanilla together and spread over mixture. I use a butter knife to spread it. Pour the remaining bread batter over the apple butter.I sprinkle more pecans on top.  Bake in preheated oven at 350 degree for 60 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan.  Makes one large loaf of bread.
