Apple Pie Bread
Have you ever walked into a grocery store and out of nowhere a recipe inspiration pops into your head? You don’t really know how or why it has decided to pop into your head, but looking at a specific ingredient in an aisle has somehow inspired you.
This happened to me a few days ago while I was shopping at Food Lion. I walked into the store and scanned my MVP card at the coupon center machine as usual. I looked over at my coupons and then ventured into the produce aisle. My kids favorite aisle of the store, might I add, no I’m not exaggerating, they really do love this aisle since it’s full of their favorite snacks.

Homemade Apple Pie Bread
After looking at the fresh produce my recipe inspiration just seemed to pop into my head. The price's weren't too bad either might I add. This recipe inspiration had a lot to do with my kids as they were begging me to get these apples. Once I saw how crisp and fresh these apples were it instantly reminded me of the upcoming fall season, where apple pies would be more than appropriate for dessert treats.
Until then, I had to figure out how to incorporate this delicious treat into something the kids could grab and go with. The lightbulb popped into my head and then the idea for an Apple Pie Bread was born. Now before you go recipe crazy don't forget to check out my full recipe for my Apple Pie Bread Recipe below.
