What could be more delightful than a thick slice of cherry almond poppyseed quick bread in the morning, afternoon, evening or middle of the night? There’s no time better than anytime, I’m thinkin’.
I love using almond flavoring in my holiday cookies, but I’d never thought to make a quick bread recipe with it until I saw a box of Krusteaz almond poppyseed muffin mix. You guys… go get a box or three, because this cherry almond quick bread recipe is scrumpty-dumpty-licious!
Try this zucchini raisin bread too!

Cherry Almond Poppyseed Quick Bread
It’s the easiest thing in the world to make this bread, y’all. Just mix up the batter as directed on the package, but pour it into a loaf pan instead of a muffin pan. Then gently swirl in a cup of cherry pie filling, and bake.
Nummy nummy goodness!

Just let it cool down before slicing, and have at it!

Enjoy!
