About

5-Minute Fall Bread, unfortunately, doesn't bake in 5 minutes, although that would be amazing. We can report however that 5-Minute Fall Bread only needs 5 minutes of actual work from you to make before your oven takes care of the rest. And what do you get from those 5 minutes? A tender, sweet, cake-like loaf loaded with jammy apples and warm cinnamon and topped with a swirl of cinnamon sugar. You could serve this as breakfast or as a dessert and see happy faces all around, especially if you top it with a vanilla glaze! Seems like a good way to spend 5 minutes!
