apple fritter bread: the perfect post apple picking silly little treat

Going apple picking each fall is a must for my family. Growing up in seasonless South Florida, both my husband and I never had a fresh apple before. So needless to say, every fall I get a little crazy and pick way too many apples at the orchard—but that’s part of the fun. The good news is, when you pick them fresh off the trees, they last longer than store-bought apples.

Since I always end up with a buttload of apples (and yes, that’s an official scientific measurement, if you were wondering), I have to get creative and come up with different things to make. This apple fritter bread is not only insanely delicious, it’s fun to “whip” a few loaves up to give to neighbors and friends.

This apple fritter bread is the perfect fall treat. The apples make the loaf soft, sweet, and so good.

how to store your apple fritter bread for meal prepping

• Let this cool completely before storing — if it’s even a little warm, moisture will get trapped and make it mushy.

• Wrap the loaf tightly in plastic wrap or foil, or store it in an airtight container.

• Keep at room temperature in a cool, dry spot for 1-4 days.

  👉 Pro tip: If you’ve added a glaze, let it fully set before wrapping so it doesn’t stick.
