Harvest Quick Bread Mix Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°. Spray loaf pan, 8 1/2x4 1/2x2 1/2 inches, with cooking spray. Discard 3 tablespoons of the pineapple juice. Mix remaining juice, pineapple, egg product and oil in medium bowl. Stir in remaining ingredients until blended. Spread batter in pan.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat your oven to 375 deg. F. (Note: I set it higher because when you open the oven to put the loaf pans in, the oven looses heat and this will get the oven temp back to 350 when you close the oven door.)
• 2. Core and peel the apples and dice. Peel the pears, cut in half, scoop out the seeds and dice.
• 3. Add the pears and the remaining ingredients, except for the lemon zest, and cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes. Lower the heat to medium low, stir in the lemon juice and keep the mixture warm.
• 4. Add the first 6 quick bread ingredients to a large mixing bowl and whisk together.

• 6. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and combine thoroughly, but don't over mix. A few lumps are good. Fold in the apple/pear mixture.

Slice and serve warm with butter or topped with ice cream for an awesome dessert.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, add water, yeast, honey and salt. Let it rest for 5 minutes (or until the yeast foams).
• Add in flour 1 cup at a time, kneading it between each cup of flour added if you are making it by hand. If you are making it with a mixer (like a Bosch or Kitchen Aid), use a paddle attachment and just let it mix while you add the flour.
• Knead bread for about 5 minutes. If the dough is sticky, add only enough flour so that the dough barely pulls away from the bowl. Every time I make bread, the amount of flour I use varies - humidity and elevation will make a big difference too. I usually use between 10-11 cups.
• Preheat oven to 170 degrees; turn the oven off, and let dough rise inside the oven for 15 minutes.
• Carefully remove bowl from oven. Spray the back of your hand with cooking spray and punch down the dough. Form into a log and cut in half, forming two larger-sized loaves. Put into 2 greased loaf pans.
• Again, preheat oven (if it?s not warm anymore) to 170 degrees and let the dough in the pans rise in the oven for 20-30 minutes, or until the dough doubles in size.
• Remove dough from oven and set oven temperature to 350 degrees. Once oven is pre-heated, place the loaves back in the oven and bake for 30 minutes.
• Remove from pans immediately and let cool completely on a cooling rack.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat a loaf pan with cooking spray and set aside.
• Combine flours and next five ingredients (through salt) in a large bowl until dry ingredients are well blended.
• In a separate small bowl whisk together canola oil, buttermilk and eggs. (Kitchen tip: sour milk can substitute for buttermilk. Milk can be soured by adding a small dash of vinegar to a bit less than 1/4 milk. Let milk sour for a few minutes before mixing into wet ingredients.).
• Add wet mixture to dry mixture, stirring until moist. Fold in grated apple, zucchini and carrots and walnuts, mixing until evenly distributed throughout batter.
• Pour batter into greased loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool on wire rack.
