    Homemade Cherry Bread, made in mini loaf pans, is a sweet and tasty bread that is great for breakfast or snack. The flavors of the cherry pie filling is sweet in a nice contrast to the bread.

    Homemade Cherry Bread can be made in a regular loaf pan, or as I did it, a mini loaf pan. The size of the mini bread loaf is perfect for snacks or breakfast. It also works great to wrap up for lunch.

    The cherry bread, much like Blueberry Streusel Bread and Cinnamon Quick Bread, has delicious filling for a sweet bread and it adds such a great texture.

    Ingredients

    • butter - margarine can be used
    • sugar
    • eggs
    • flour - all purpose
    • baking soda
    • milk - I used almond milk
    • vanilla
    • pie filling cherries

    Alternatives

    • cinnamon can be added to the ingredients
    • blueberry pie filling can be used
    • almond extract instead of vanilla

    Mixing the batter

    The batter will be mixed together in a large bowl. There is no need to separate the ingredients so less bowls will be used! The cherry pie filling will be added and folded in the finished batter, not stirred.

    Bake

    If mini loaf pans are used, the cherry bread will be baked at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. If a regular 9 inch pan is used, the baking time will be longer, about 45 minutes or until bread tests done with a toothpick.

    FAQ

    Can I put this in two 9 inch loaf pans?

    The recipe would need to be doubled for two 9 inch loaf pans.

    Can I drizzle a frosting on top of this bread?

    Yes! For a sweet bread, a light glazed frosting would be delicious! Take note the bread needs to cooled completely before drizzling the frosting.

    Can I use regular cherries?

    For this recipe, cherry pie filling is best.

    Enjoy this simple and tasty cherry bread recipe! This bread will quickly become a family favorite.

      Is this using a can of cherry pie filling that is sweetened and has a thick goopy sauce in it? Or a can of the tart cherries that I use for pie? Thank you.

      You call for 1/2 butter. Is that half a cup? Half a stick?
      Please clarify!
