Provided by Snootie

Number Of Ingredients 12

For the praline sauce:
1 cup sour cream
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
2 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 cups Granny Smith apples, peeled and finely chopped
1 cup nuts (walnut or pecan or a combo), divided
1/4 cup brown sugar and 1/4 cup butter

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 9 x 5 x 3 inch loaf pan. Set aside. (I used stoneware loaf pan for perfect cooking) Using an electric mixer, beat together the sour cream, sugar, eggs and vanilla on low speed for a couple of minutes until well blended. Stop the mixer and then add in the flour, leavening agents and salt. Continue to beat on low until well combined. Fold in the apples and half the nuts into the batter. Transfer the batter into the greased loaf pan. Sprinkle the rest of the nuts on top and then press them lightly into the batter. Bake for about 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in the loaf pan for about 20-30 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. So it doesn't get too dark, I suggest using a light colored loaf pan. For the praline sauce: In a small sauce pan, place the butter and brown sugar. Using medium heat, bring to a boil. Lower the heat and then simmer lightly for about one minute, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and then drizzle over the bread. Cool completely..

Also, there's no oil - sour cream makes this bread nice and tender. The bread itself is not overly sweet and there's a lovely bit of apple in every bite. What makes...

Apple praline bread is a delicious dessert that combines the rich flavors of spiced apples with the sweetness of praline pecans. If you are planning to make this bread recipe, there are a few tips and tricks that you should keep in mind to ensure the best results. In this article, we will discuss some valuable tips for making apple praline bread.

Tip 1: Use Fresh Ingredients

One of the most important tips for making apple praline bread is to use fresh ingredients. Using fresh ingredients will ensure that your bread has the best taste and texture. For example, use fresh apples instead of canned apples or apple sauce. Fresh apples will add a crispness and natural sweetness to your bread that cannot be replicated with canned or processed ingredients. Additionally, use fresh pecans to make your praline topping as stale or rancid nuts will affect the overall taste of the bread.

Tip 2: Use the Right Apples

When making apple praline bread, it is crucial to choose the right type of apples. Some apples are better suited for baking and cooking than others because they retain their shape and texture when cooked, while others tend to fall apart. For example, Honeycrisp, Granny Smith, and Braeburn apples are popular choices for baking because they are firm and retain their shape during the baking process. However, softer apples like Macintosh and Rome apples tend to fall apart when baked, which may affect the texture and taste of your bread.

Tip 3: Spices are Important

Adding the right spices to your apple praline bread can make a world of difference in terms of flavor. Some spices that work well in apple praline bread recipes include cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, ginger, and cloves. These spices add warmth and depth to the flavor of your bread, making it more delicious and comforting. However, be careful not to use too many spices as they can overpower the other flavors in the recipe.

Tip 4: Use a Bundt Pan

Apple praline bread is typically made in a loaf pan, but using a bundt pan can give your bread a beautiful shape and add a touch of elegance to your presentation. A bundt pan also allows the bread to cook more evenly and ensures that it is cooked through in the center.

Tip 5: Toast Your Pecans

Toasting your pecans before adding them to your praline topping can significantly enhance the texture and flavor of your bread. Toasting the pecans releases their natural oils and makes them crispier, which provides an excellent contrast to the softness of the bread. To toast your pecans, simply spread them out in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly browned and fragrant.
Conclusion
In conclusion, making apple praline bread can be a delicious and rewarding experience if you follow these valuable tips.
