Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pkg Krusteaz Almond Poppyseed Supreme Muffin Mix
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup cherry pie filling
  • 1 pkg poppy seeds (enclosed in Krusteaz package)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Heat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease an 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 x 2 1/2-inch loaf pan to prevent the bread from sticking during baking.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, stir together the water, egg, and the Krusteaz Almond Poppyseed Supreme Muffin Mix until just moistened. Then fold in the enclosed poppy seeds gently to distribute evenly.
  3. Add Cherry Filling: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Using a knife, swirl the cherry pie filling into the batter to create a marbled effect without fully mixing it in.
  4. Bake the Bread: Bake at 350 degrees F for 50-55 minutes or until the bread turns golden brown and a tester inserted in the center comes out clean.
  5. Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Gently loosen the edges and remove the bread from the pan. Allow it to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing. Store in a tightly covered container to maintain freshness.

Notes

  • Ensure the cherry pie filling is well swirled but not fully mixed to retain attractive streaks.
  • Letting the bread cool completely before slicing helps maintain clean slices.
  • This quick bread can be stored at room temperature for 2-3 days or refrigerated for longer shelf life.
  • For an extra almond flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of almond extract to the batter.
