Vintage recipe.

Fig and Apple Cider Bread
This fig and apple cider bread is full of sweet warming spices, delicious chunks of apples and figs topped off with a cinnamon orange glaze. It’s a moist bite, not overly sweet and has a very rustic, vintage feel. This bread would be a great accompaniment with a glass of my easy hot apple cider on a cool crisp fall day.
