Separate Loaf of bread With this Harvest-Season Loaf.

The following is an excerpt from a post that was originally featured on Honey and Birch and written by Jenny B., who is part of POPSUGAR Select Food.
For the holidays, Mr. B and I have worked out a plan to switch off each year for both Thanksgiving and Christmas. It's my family's year for Thanksgiving which means lots of awesomeness. My family is full of food lovers and amazing cooks.
Each Thanksgiving my aunt and uncle host (they host Christmas day night too) which makes me very happy — my Uncle Charly makes the most amazing mashed potatoes. I'm sure everyone says that but I will go so far as to put the title "best" on his recipe.
Yes, I know that is a serious claim. If I ever get his recipe there is a good chance I won't share it here and just hog it all to myself. If this happens, I will try not to fill my Instagram feed with pictures of me and bowls of mashed potatoes. No promises though.
Anyway, back to Thanksgiving. Before I forget, I wanted to give y'all a quick reminder (or if you're new here since last Thanksgiving, some knowledge) of the massive Thanksgiving roundup I put together last year. 8 Great — The Thanksgiving Edition is a happy little collection of my favorite Thanksgiving recipes. Give it a go if you're looking to change your dinner up a bit.
While my aunt and uncle traditionally have prepared the entire Thanksgiving meal, as the kids have gotten older (and our parents too) we have all been participating in providing the Thanksgiving feast. I signed on to bring an appetizer or two. And because last year I spent Thanksgiving with Mr. B's family, and even though we will undoubtedly have too much food, I am also going to bring a loaf of this delicious quick bread.
I already had my cousin taste test it — she gave it two thumbs up. It's easy to make and ridiculously delicious. Don't just take my word for it — make a loaf of it yourself. :)
The finished product is tasty and is very good on its own (meaning without butter or jam or jelly.) But if you feel the need to put something on it, I whipped up some honey, literally, and slathered that on a piece. Yum.

Apple, Almond, and Cranberry Quick Bread

Notes

To make this bread you will need 1 apple, some blanched almonds, and dried cranberries (I got mine from Trader Joes). Dice up the apple so the pieces are about the same size as the cranberries. Honeycrisp apples are always my go-to for baking!
