Whip up a batch of this Apple Cheddar Quick Bread to enjoy with your Thanksgiving leftovers!
It’s November 21st and you know what that means, Recipe Redux day and only 5 days until Thanksgiving! Yikes. This month’s recipe redux challenge is to bake a creative quick bread for the holiday season. Quick breads are just that, quick. They can be sweet, savory or both. I decided to go with something that was both sweet and savory and perfect for using Thanksgiving leftovers.
In my quick bread I used leftover mashed potatoes, which gives the bread a moist texture. For a healthy spin on a traditional quick bread I used part white whole wheat flour and plain Greek yogurt in the mix. For flavor I added in diced apples and cheddar cheese, basically the best combination ever created! This bread is savory and slightly sweet and the perfect vessel for enjoying all those yummy Thanksgiving leftovers. Top it off with some leftover Cranberry Apple Compote, honey butter, or make it into an open face sandwich with turkey and cranberry apple compote. In whatever combination you choose your taste buds will be thanking you 🙂 .
