Praline Topped Apple Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Work the apples, sugar and lemon zest together in a large bowl with your hands until the sugar feels like wet sand. Let the mixture sit, tossing occasionally, for 30 minutes (the sugar will have started to melt but will still be gritty).
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Generously coat a 10-by-5-by-3-inch loaf pan with cooking spray. Sift the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt together onto a large piece of parchment. Whisk together the oil, eggs and vanilla in a medium bowl.
• Once the apples are ready, add the flour mixture to them, and fold until combined. Pour in the oil mixture, and fold until just combined (it's OK if there are a few lumps). Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Tap the pan on the counter a few times to settle and even out the batter.
• Bake the bread until the top is golden brown and bounces back when pressed (if you insert a toothpick into the center, it's OK if there are a few crumbs), 55 to 60 minutes. Let cool in the pan on a cooling rack until cool enough to handle. Invert the bread out of the pan, and serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• 1. Mix sour cream, sugar, eggs, and vanilla with an electric mixer on low speed until well blended.
• 2. Stop the mixer and add the dry ingredients. Mix on low until well blended.
• 3. Fold in the apples and 1/2 of the nuts. The batter will be very thick.
• 4. Pour into a prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of the nuts over the batter and press with your hands into the batter, don't press very deep.
• 5. Bake at 350 for 60 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow the bread to cool in the pan for 20 to 30 minutes before removing.
• 6. PRALINE SAUCE: Combine the butter and sugar in a pot and bring to a boil over medium heat. Once it comes to a boil, then simmer until it thickens like a sauce.
• 7. Drizzle over the cooled bread. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Grease 9x5-inch loaf pan with shortening; lightly flour. Spread 1/2 cup of the pecans in ungreased shallow pan. Bake 6 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until light brown.
• In medium bowl, beat sour cream, granulated sugar, eggs and vanilla with electric mixer on low speed 2 minutes. Beat in flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt just until blended. Stir in apples and toasted pecans. Spoon batter into pan. Sprinkle with remaining 1 cup pecans; lightly press pecans into batter.
• Bake 1 hour to 1 hour 5 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, covering with foil during last 15 minutes to prevent overbrowning, if necessary. Cool 10 minutes; remove from pan to cooling rack.
• In 1-quart heavy saucepan, heat butter and brown sugar to boiling over medium heat, stirring constantly; boil 1 minute. Spoon glaze over top of bread. Cool completely, about 2 hours.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F; grease a 9x5x3-inch loaf pan.
• Using an electric mixer on low speed, beat together the granulated sugar, sour cream, eggs, and vanilla until combined; raise speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes.
• In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, nutmeg, baking powder, soda, and salt; gradually add to sugar/sour cream mixture on low speed until combined.
• By hand, stir in the chopped apple and 1/2 cup of the pecans.
• Turn batter into the greased loaf pan; sprinkle with the remaining chopped pecans and press nuts lightly into the batter.
• Bake in a 350 degree oven for 55 to 60 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted in center comes out clean; if bread is turning too brown, cover top of the bread loosely with foil for the last 10 minutes.
• Let cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes.
• While bread is cooling, in a small saucepan over medium-high heat combine the butter and brown sugar and cook, stirring, until mixture comes to a boil.
• Reduce heat and simmer gently for 1 minute to make caramel topping.
• Remove bread from pan; drizzle top with the caramel and let cool.
• Serve and enjoy!
