This was my mom's recipe that she would make every fall after visiting the apple orchard. The aroma as it bakes is unbelievable!

This iced cinnamon apple raisin bread tastes like fall in a quick bread. It's full of cinnamon apple flavor. We loved the added crunch from the walnuts. On top is an icing that adds the perfect balance of sweetness. An easy-to-make quick bread for breakfast or just a delicious quick snack.
