Ingredients
Scale
Quick Bread Mix
- 1 pkg Krusteaz Almond Poppyseed Supreme Muffin Mix
- 1 cup water
- 1 egg
- Poppy seeds (enclosed in Krusteaz package)
Filling
- 1 cup cherry pie filling
Instructions
- Prepare Oven and Pan: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease an 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 x 2 1/2-inch loaf pan to ensure the bread doesn’t stick.
- Mix Batter: In a mixing bowl, stir together the water, egg, and the almond poppyseed muffin mix until just moistened. Then, fold in the poppy seeds provided in the muffin mix package evenly throughout the batter.
- Add Cherry Swirl: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Using a knife, gently swirl the cherry pie filling into the batter to create a marbled effect throughout the quick bread.
- Bake the Bread: Place the loaf pan into the preheated oven and bake for 50-55 minutes or until the bread turns golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then gently loosen the edges and remove the bread from the pan. Let it cool completely on a wire rack before slicing. Store in a tightly covered container to maintain freshness.
Notes
- Make sure not to overmix the batter to keep the bread tender.
- The cherry pie filling can be substituted with other fruit fillings like blueberry or raspberry as desired.
- Use fresh loaf pan grease or parchment paper for easier bread removal.
- Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing to prevent crumbling.
- Store leftover bread at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
