Apple Cinnamon Bread With Glaze Food

CINNAMON APPLE QUICK BREAD WITH APPLE CIDER GLAZE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter and flour an 8 1/2-inch-by-4 1/2-inch loaf pan. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg and cloves. In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, applesauce, sugars, eggs and apple.
• Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Transfer to the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes.
• Transfer to a rack to cool slightly, then remove the cake from the pan and let it cool completely.
• When the cake has cooled, prepare the glaze: Bring the apple cider to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Continue to cook the cider until it has reduced to 1/3 cup, about 10 minutes. Add the butter, confectioners' sugar and salt. Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer and continue to cook the mixture, whisking often, until it has become syrupy and thickened slightly, about 4 minutes. Set aside to cool until it thickens slightly.
• Drizzle the glaze over the cake, and serve.

APPLE CINNAMON SWIRL BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Blend together until well combined. Add chopped apple, and mix until apple is evenly distributed and covered with flour.
• In a medium bowl, combine buttermilk, eggs, banana, vanilla, and oil. Mix well, and slowly incorporate into dry ingredients. Gently fold together just until combined.
• In a small bowl, (like how I'm downsizing each time? ;) haha) combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1 tablespoon cinnamon. Mix well.
• In a greased loaf pan (9x3x5), pour 1/4 of the batter, repeat with a second loaf pan. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon swirl mixture over batter; repeat. Cover both pans with remaining batter and swirl a butter knife through to make the marbled appearance.
• Bake for an hour to an hour and 5 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out nearly clean. (A little gooey is okay, but if loaves start getting too dark before they're fully baked, cover with aluminum foil).
• For the glaze, mix together milk and powdered sugar and drizzle over cooled bread.

CINNAMON-APPLE TWIST BREAD

Steps:

• Manual/Mixer Method:.
• Mix all of the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Note: It's important to distribute the potato flour (or flakes) throughout the dry ingredients so it/they won't clump when the liquid is added. Add the butter, flavoring, egg and milk, then mix until a shaggy dough forms. Let the dough rest for 30 minutes; this resting period allows the flour to absorb the liquid fully, making it easier to knead.
• Knead the dough for about 10 minutes; it should feel slightly sticky and soft. Add a couple of tablespoons of water if the dough feels firm or dry. Place the dough in a greased bowl, turning to coat. Cover the bowl, and let the dough rise until it's almost doubled in bulk, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. The amount of time this takes will depend on the temperature of your kitchen; yeast works the fastest at about 85°F.
• Bread Machine Method:.
• Place all of the dough ingredients into the pan of your bread machine, program the machine for manual or dough, and press Start. About 10 minutes before the end of the final kneading cycle, adjust the consistency of the dough with additional flour or water, as necessary; it should be smooth and somewhat sticky. Allow the machine to complete its cycle.
• Filling:.
• While the dough is rising, make the filling. Whisk together the sugar, flour, cinnamon. (the filling will be runny, but it will firm up when baked.).
• Toss the grated apples with the lemon juice, then add that to the sugar mixture. Mix well, and set aside.
• Assembly:.
• Gently deflate the risen dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured or greased work surface. Fold it over once or twice to remove the excess gas. Divide the dough in half. Roll the first half into a 10 x 12-inch rectangle. Spread half the filling over the rolled-out dough, leaving a 1/2-inch margin clear of filling along all sides.
• Starting with a long side, roll the dough into a log, sealing the edge. Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut the log in half lengthwise. Place the half-logs, filled side up, side by side on a well-greased or parchment-lined baking sheet. Keeping the filling side up, twist or "braid" the two logs together, working from the center to each end. Pinch the ends together. Repeat with the second piece of dough. Cover the twists lightly, and set them aside to rise for 1 to 2 hours.
• To Make Rolls:.
• Follow the directions above to the point where you've rolled the dough into a log. Repeat with the remaining piece of dough, then cut each log into 1-inch slices. Place the slices cut side up (and down) in well-greased or parchment-lined pans, placing them close together (though not touching) for soft-sided rolls, or about 2 inches apart for crustier rolls. Allow the rolls to rise till they're puffy.
• Baking:.
• Bake the loaves in a preheated 350°F oven for 30 to 35 minutes (or the rolls for 18 to 20 minutes), until they're lightly browned. Check the loaves after 20 minutes and tent with aluminum foil if they're browning too quickly around the edges. Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool for about 1 hour before glazing and serving.
• Glaze:.
• Mix together all of the glaze ingredients and drizzle it over the loaves or rolls once they're cool. Yield: 2 loaves or about 24 rolls.
