APPLE PIE PULL-APART LOAF—Better Homes and Gardens Fall Baking
Ingredients:
Icing:
Method:
In a small saucepan, heat milk just until warm (105-115 degrees Fahrenheit). In a large bowl combine milk and yeast; stir until yeast is dissolved. Let stand 5 minutes. Add egg, ¼ c. melted butter, granulated sugar, and salt to yeast mixture. Beat with mixer on medium until combined. Add half of flour; beat on low for 30 seconds, scraping bowl as needed. Beat 3 minutes on medium. Stir in remaining flour. Shape dough into a ball (dough will not be smooth). Place dough in greased bowl; turn once to grease surface. Cover and let rise in a warm place until nearly double in size (45-60 minutes). Grease a 9 x 5 x 3-inch loaf pan. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Cover dough with bowl and let rest 10 minutes to help relax dough. Roll dough into a 20 x 12-inch rectangle. Brush with ¼ c. melted butter. Sprinkle with apples, brown sugar, and apple pie spice. Cut rectangle in half lengthwise to make two 20 x 6-inch pieces; cut each piece crosswise into five 6 x 4-inch strips. Carefully make two stacks of five strips each. Cut each stack into 4 x 2-inch pieces. Stagger pieces in pan, cut side up. Cover; let rise in a warm place until nearly double in size (40-45 minutes). Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake about 45 minutes or until golden brown and an instant-read-thermometer registers 200 degrees Fahrenheit. (May need to cover top with foil toward the end of baking to prevent overbrowning.) Cool in pan 10 minutes. Remove from pan to serving plate. Cool 20 minutes more. Drizzle with icing. Icing: In a 2-cup glass measuring cup, whisk together icing ingredients. Drizzle over loaf.

NOTE FROM MISS NINI: The method can be simplified by using frozen bread dough or rolls in place of making the dough from scratch.
