Very light and moist bread. I used golden raisins and probably not enough apple. I only had one small apple, though, so I had to content myself with that. Made two nice big loaves. I just shaped into round loaves and placed on a cookie sheet pan, then let rise. Nice sweet bread.

It needs to have to be layered with cinnamon, sugar and maybe nutmeg for a really awesome impact.

Wonderful! I found that I had to use closer to 9 cups of flour to get the dough to the proper consistency. Used a mix of dried cranberries & raisins. Used homemade applesauce. Did 3 free-form rustic round loaves and baked them greased & cornmeal-dusted cookie sheets (no need for round cake pans or loaf pans - the rustic loaves came out great). Love it!

Perfect addition to Easter supper. It has a "Lenten" feel and look. Note: I found this dough quite sticky and used more than 8 cups of flour when kneading. Be sure to have plenty around in case you run into a similar problem. Also, next time I'll add more raisins. Thanks for the recipe!

I loved this recipe just the way it is! It also works well with cranberries combined with the raisins. My family can't get enough of the bread whenever I make it. It has become one of my favorite recipes!

I have made this a number of times now and it is always great. My daughter in law loves it. I would note though that my Irish husband pronounced it the best Brack he had ever had. Apparently it is very similar to an Irish bready-cake sort of thing (not dissimilar to Pannetone) and the whole family loved it. By the way-I didn't change a thing!

This is such an excellent recipe. MY whole family loves it, and because it makes 3 loaves, I can share it with friends as well! I love that this doesn't call for cinnamon or any of the traditional spices that we put with apples. It gives this bread a fresh light flavor.

This bread was very good. I added a chunky applesauce and it was a very moist bread. I would definitely make it again.

We absolutely loved this bread - I used my own chunky homemade applesauce, and used dried cranberries as well some raisins. I made two of the loaves in the round pans as suggested in the recipe, and one in a loaf pan, and I prefer the ones made in the round pans. I will make this again and again.

A very good bread and easy to make. The only changes I made were to add cinnamon and to make my own apple sauce (we like it chunkier, gives more flavor). I also used 3 LARGE bread pans. The loaves were huge and looked beautiful! A big hit in my house.
