JULIAN BAKERY’S APPLE CINNAMON RAISIN BREAD

Julian Bakery’s Apple Cinnamon Raisin Bread is the best breakfast or “special treat” bread you will ever find. It is made with lots of fresh apples, sweetened with honey, and is fat free. To say it is delicious would not do it justice.

This bread is like an incredible whole grain dessert for anytime you want to treat yourself, your family or friends. Also, it is lower in calories than most treats.

Apple Cinnamon Raisin Bread is full of fresh stone ground whole grain wheat, fresh apples, honey, raisins, yeast, cinnamon and sea salt.

Whole Grains or foods made from them contain all essential parts and naturally occurring nutrients of the entire grain seed. If the grain has been processed (cracked, crushed, rolled, extruded, and/or cooked), the food product should deliver approximately the same rich balance of nutrients that are found in the original grain seed.

Wheat is any of various annual cereal grasses of the genus Triticum of the Mediterranean region and Southwest Asia, ground to produce flour used in breadstuffs and pasta.

Apple Cinnamon Raisin is one of my top 4 favorite Julian Bakery breads. I can’t keep enough Real Sourdough Rye, Manna from Heaven, Smart Carb #1 or Apple Cinnamon Raisin in the house.

This bread alone can make a meal…but trust me when I say, “You have never, ever had French toast as good as when it is made with Julian Bakery’s Apple Cinnamon Raisin Bread.” You hardly need to add butter or real maple syrup to it…but if you do…you will think you have died and gone to heaven. Hey, I am not kidding you….I don’t know how they do it, but every single slice has the most flavorful apples in it, which eliminates having to serve a separate side of fruit for breakfast.

OK…I will tell you a quick, little story….the last time I got my hands on a loaf of Apple Cinnamon Raisin, it was late in the afternoon. It was so fresh and awesome I could smell it through the wrapper. I put it on the counter so it would be right there in the morning when I wanted to have it for breakfast. I went to run some errands, came home, watched a little TV and went to bed….all the while thinking about how I couldn’t wait to get up early to have that dang bread. Well…I tossed and turned and could not sleep thinking about that bread just sitting there. Finally, at 1 a.m., I had had it. I got up and toasted a slice and had it with hot chocolate soymilk. I just couldn’t wait another second. It was soooo good. And guess what. I still got up early to have it all over again for breakfast.

By the way, due to the perishability of all the Julian Bakery breads, they must be at least refrigerated upon arrival. They keep beautifully in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks and frozen for up to 6 months, without any loss of nutritional value. I just didn’t want to give you the wrong impression when I said I left the loaf out on the counter. I only did so because I knew it had just been baked and could stand to be out for several days.

Enjoy, Samantha
