Omg this bread (more like a giant, moist muffin) is SINFUL! I subbed half the oil for 3/4 cup cinnamon applesauce, added a handful of pecan pieces, baked the loaves with a pan of water underneath them per a reviewer's suggestion, & covered with foil after 50 minutes of baking. After baking about 55 minutes I turned the oven off & kept the loaves in for another 15-20 minutes.
I tried a small piece shortly after taking the bread out &... kinda yucky to be honest. The flavor of cloves was overpowering. After poking holes on top & melting a little butter, I ziplock bagged them, refrigerated & didn't try it again until about 18 hours later. I don't understand how the flavor could change so dramatically but it did. Sooo good!
I made a cream cheese spread with honey & cinnamon that complimented the bread nicely. Definitely a keeper. Thanks Laurie from myself, my friends, & a few lucky neighbors.
