Apple Butter Bread with Maple and Apple Butter Dip / Giveaway #applebutterspin

By 82 Comments

Hi Everyone,

How are you today!  I have another fun post for you today!  It’s that time of the year and one of my favorite things to have is Apple Butter.  I swear I stock up on it, make it, eat it, spoon it and purely enjoy it  on so many things.  I drive my family crazy with apple butter and pumpkin things.  I don’t get sick of it ether.  I just love it!  Ahhh, now I know why I love Fall so much.  But not only do I have two fun Fall recipes for you but I also have another giveaway.  Wow, two days in a row of giveaways!!  I must be feeling generous.  That’s what happens when I have apple butter!  But before I get to my giveaway, let me show you what I have made.

Apple Butter Raisin Bread

I made the ultimate Apple Butter Bread! The bread is moist, chock full of raisins and has the most wonderful apple flavor. It would be so perfect for popping in the toaster and topping with my homemade Maple Apple Butter Dip. Oh baby, pure apple heaven!  I think I am obsessed!
Maple and Apple Butter Dip

The challenge I had faced was to take one of my classic recipes and change it up by using Musselman’s Apple Butter.  For the bread I used my classic Apple Raisin Bread which is a family favorite and mine too!  It is one bread that I truly love that I don’t make nearly enough.  After making this recipe I forgot how much I just love this bread.  The smell of it baking in the oven is simply amazing.  The cinnamon and apple smell lingered in my house for hours.   I had to control myself not to eat  the whole loaf of bread.  Lucky I made three mini loaves.


Apple Butter Raisin Bread
The bread is healthy, low calorie and is made with greek yogurt and Musslemans Apple Butter which made it ober moist. Is ober a word? It is now! 🙂 The loaf also turned out fat, fluffy a little heavy, but definitely not dense or chewy. It’s the perfect morning bread.  Side it with some pumpkin spice coffee or a spicy tea and you have quite a nice breakfast if I do say so myself.
Apple Butter Raisin Bread
I paired my bread with a Maple and Apple Butter dip that I have been nibbling on all week. I took it to work to have my co-workers try it and they looked at the brown color and said no thanks, then I said aggressively, try it! They did and they loved it. The first day more than half the dip was gone and there were only four people in the office. The dip is made with cream cheese, greek yogurt, maple syrup, cinnamon and Musselmans Apple Butter. It is so darn good. I have been dipping crackers and apple slices in it all week. It makes for a nice healthy snack. You just have to try the dip. I promise you will love it!!!  MAKE IT!!

  7. I love using apple butter in my oats/over night oats as well as simply on rice cakes for a quick snack! I love this time of year ; )

  13. I would make this apple butter bread! And probably just eat some apple butter on toast 🙂

  14. Quick question: What other flours do you recommend as subs for the whole wheat pastry flour? Thanks.
    Def pinning!

  29. Jennifer, I don’t think ‘ober’ is a real word. You may be looking for the German word über, which means over, above, beyond… It did make sense the way you wrote it. 🙂

  53. I would spread it for apple butter toast and also delicious apple butter peanut butter sandwiches!

  57. I would make apple butter bread. I am sure it would be Delish slathered on a chewy bagel. I live in Sacramento and will be heading to apple hill within the next couple of weeks. I love the fall. We go crazy over the fresh pressed cider. Lol

    • Now I’m all excited for Apple Hill again!! Were heading up there in 16 days from today! 🙂 The fresh pressed cider is amazing from there! I am looking to get MacIntosh apples, since you can’t find them in the stores. Apple Butter on a chewy bagel sounds so good!!

  59. I’d make this apple butter bread recipe. It looks yummy, and I love having something like this for breakfast and snacks.

  65. I love apple butter! I’d probably make buttermilk biscuits and just slather them in it, although I’ve also used it in cheesecake and it turned out amazing (:
