Because apples are so yummy and good for us I like to use them in recipes whenever I can. Usually, I’ll leave the peels on for extra fiber; especially if I am using organic apples from my parent’s farm. Their apples are as organic as you can possibly get. No chemicals or pesticides. Totally nature made.
Sometimes we use these apples to make Apple Pie Oatmeal or Mulled Apple Cider or even in Mini Cast Iron Skillet Fruit Pies.
The muffins baked for 45 – 50 minutes and as the bread started to bake, the aroma that filled my home was heavenly.
It’s best to allow the bread to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before removing the muffins. The next step is to make the yummy praline topping.
The praline is created by combining butter and brown sugar. As the mixture came to a rolling boil, I stirred it frequently to keep the mixture from burning.
I then removed the bread from pan and drizzle the hot praline mixture over the bread.
Next, I topped the bread with additional chopped pecans.
Did I mention that this bread smelled so delicious while it was baking??? It made our whole house smell like fall. Mmm, Mmm! Therefore, don’t wait until fall to make this delicious Old Fashioned Praline Apple Bread. Because this bread is so yummy, it’s fantastic any time of the year!
