It was delicious, but should have apple pie spices in it to make it better. I added some spices to the streusel and it added more flavor. Very moist. Next time I'm going to added cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, allspice and ginger to spice it up. Definitely will make again.

this is one of my new (last 3 years) Christmas traditions! Love it. Always turns out moist and delish. and to keep with other comments -ive never tried the silicon just regular loaf pan and have never had an issue with it.

Bread is good, but not as apple pie tasting as I thought it would be, missing that cinnamon/nutmeg taste. I used silicon pan and came out good. Needs to bake longer than the 60min to come out bread like. Will try again with my own additions!

Made the recipe as is and absolutely love it! Used regular baking loaf pan and silicon loaf pan and had better results using silicon. The streusel topping is great only that it flaked off easily. I'll try working with another topping and experiment with whole wheat pastry flour for added nutrition as this bread is a keeper!
