How To Make apple pie bread

• 1

  Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 9×5″ loaf pan. I don't know why you couldn't use Apple Pie Spice. I just didn't have any on hand to try it with. :) Mix the flour, baking powder, nutmeg and cinnamon. Add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture. Mix well. Add the lemon juice and lemon zest. Add the pie filling and fold mixture until well blended, but don’t over mix.

Until top of loaf is set and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean (it may not come out totally clean because of the denseness of the bread). It will start sinking into it’s sunken form as it cools.
