Directions
Annacias North Africa/Middle East Apricot and Honey Loaf, Call it a cake or a quick bread, either way it’s different and delicious I adapted another of my recipes (Honey Spice Cake) to come up with this flavorful loaf You will need to make Zany Zesty North Africa/Middle East Spice Mix #428327 (I skipped the sugar and salt in it) for the spice used in this, it doesn’t take more than 5 mins and that included gathering the ingredients onto the counter and it is what makes this recipe what it is Get ready to enjoy the wonderful baking aroma!, How can I be the first to review??? My rating is actually 4 5 after 45 minutes it wasn’t cooked I had to take it out to raise the heat for another dish so it sunk 🙁 But once the other dish was done, i put this loaf back in the oven with the heat turned off where it sat for (awhile) The end result was kinda flat with a sunken middle but OH MY HOLY CRIPES AHOY!!! This was *supposed* to be breakfast tomorrow & the next day I hope there’s enough left for tomorrow The kids had theirs in a bowl with ice cream Mine, as usual, was buttered Happily, the apricots stayed dispersed used a full TB of the spice mix which i made using the salt & sugar I did cut back a wee bit on the salt in the recipe I don’t think it would matter much the spice mix adds a lovely flavor!! Too bad I can’t review that recipe 😉 used the rest of the spice mix on some chicken for dinner Worked out well! Delicious recipe ~ I’ve been wanting to make this for MONTHS So happy I *finally* did it!! Thank you, A!! xoxo Bethie, Call it a cake or a quick bread, either way it’s different and delicious I adapted another of my recipes (Honey Spice Cake) to come up with this flavorful loaf You will need to make Zany Zesty North Africa/Middle East Spice Mix #428327 (I skipped the sugar and salt in it) for the spice used in this, it doesn’t take more than 5 mins and that included gathering the ingredients onto the counter and it is what makes this recipe what it is Get ready to enjoy the wonderful baking aroma!
