The bread in itself wasn't very good. I couldn't make it stay together as a dough until I added about a cup and a half of extra bread flour. After I got it hold together, I noticed it was very sour. So I added 3 tablespoons of sugar. Listening to the advice in the other reviews, I added the cinnamon right before the second rising. After that, it rose perfectly and is a great hit. Diffidently will be making it again with these changes.

Followed the recipe exactly but it never came together. Not at all done. Sad - I was looking forward to trying this but all I did was waste my money.

Very heavy bread but good. Try baking in oven next time.

This is now my new favorite bread recipe! I did make a couple of changes due to what I had on hand. i used fresh apples and blended them till smooth(think thick applesauce) and used sour cream instead of buttermilk I did have to add extra flour but thats usual for our climate.

Ok...for those people who says this bread doesnt rise...lets put it this way...have you made banana bread before? I think this is the same deal is banana bread instead of banana it is apples. As the dough mixture mixes it just kinda flops but it still cooks and works out in the end. I just made a loaf tonight and I followed the advice of putting the cinamon later in the cycle when the bread maker beaps. It smells just like apple pie, it is a heavy loaf of bread and I am excited for tomorows breakfast! Also, I used the entire 540mL can of apple pie filling which I think is way more than 1 and 1/4cups but my machine does a great job in chopping up things!

This bread came out super soft. It had a nice flavor and I think I was looking for a little bit more apple pie flavor. I even added 1/2 cup more apple filling. Maybe next time I will add the whole can. My husband and kids loved it and I will definitely make it again.

After reading all the reviews, I didn't have powdered buttermilk, so just added 2 mort tab of flour and instead of 1 1/2 tea of yeast, I put in 2 tea. I also added 1/4 tea of nutmeg. I put the ingredients in acording to manufacturers directions. I woke up to a wonderful loaf of bread. Nice and light, not dense at all. I used the 2 lb setting and the light crust setting. Since I wasn't up to watch the dough, I can not say if it was real sticky or not. But it turned out nice.

This was awesome! However, I did add more apple pie filling. Spread butter and cinnamon sugar on a slice. Mmmmm.

I REALLY wanted this to be yummy and was really looking forward to it since is smelled amazing, but when I took it out of my bread machine it had fallen in the center and had this dried glue-like crust on top, the bottom portion was dense and sort of soggy. I even thought I would try some of the bottom part (couldn't even break off the top "crust") . I didn't eat any. I have experimented with breads and done some research on trouble shooting problems and all I can guess is that it has too much moisture (hence the soggy parts) and too much sugar I have read can kill yeast (hence the imploded, brick hard top).
