Apple Bread with Yellow Cake Mix
Ingredients
- 1 13.5 ounce box cake mix I used yellow cake mix
- 1 21 ounce can apple pie filling
- 4 large eggs lightly beaten
- 1 cup self-rising flour
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1 apple finely diced
- 2 teaspoons sugar or brown sugar, to top
- Unsalted Butter for greasing the pans
Method
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (or 175 degrees Celsius). Grease two standard loaf pans with butter, or line them with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl add the yellow cake mix, self-rising flour, and cinnamon. Stir to mix the dry ingredients evenly.
- Add the wet ingredients: Pour in the lightly beaten eggs (I beat them in a small bowl first) and the entire can of apple pie filling. Stir gently until everything is just combined, it’s okay if the pie filling breaks up a little.
- Fold in the finely diced fresh apple into the batter. Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared loaf pans.
- Sprinkle the top of the batter with the sugar (or brown sugar) for a sweet, slightly crunchy topping. Bake for 45–55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
- Cool the bread in the pans for about 10–15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely to room temperature. Slice and serve.
