Here is a variation on our Cheesy Beer Bread that make it a perfect fall treat.  We replaced the beer with hard cider and added in some spices to give it an autmnal twist. Just like our other breads, our Hard Cider Bread needs no yeast or rising time.  Just mix, bake and enjoy. It is the perfect accompaniment to a glass of apple cider or a mug of our Hot Spiced Cider. This is a sweet bread, so you probably don’t want to serve it with dinner. However, it makes a great breakfast when served with apple butter or almond butter.
