After making this wonderful bread…

it will be a “go to” recipe for special occasions or just when I get hungry for it!…

what a great gift too!

Homemade for sure!…

not, the simple , quick stuff I usually go for!…

Although after collecting my ingredients it was easy to put together!

Real flour, vanilla, juicy green limes, eggs, sugar…

and Cherry Pie Filling!…

“CHERRY LIME BREAD”

Makes 2 loaves

3/4 cup butter (I used margarine)

1-1/2 cups sugar

Beat well…

Add…

3 large eggs

1-tsp. vanilla

3-cups all-purpose flour

2-tsp. baking powder

1-1/2 tsp. baking soda

1/2- tsp. salt

Lime zest from 2 limes

(Grating limes for zest)

Beat well and then fold in…

1-1/2 cups sour cream

Grease 2 loaf pans and spoon 1/2 of batter into each pan evenly…

Divide 1- can of cherry pie filling between the two pans …

spooning on top of batter…

Top with the remaining bread batter… It doesn’t have to cover completely… 

Bake at 350 degrees for 60-70 minutes…

Remove and cool on wire rack until cool… (10 minutes)

Meantime… whisk together…

3 – cups powdered sugar

Juice of 3 limes

until smooth…

Pour over top of breads…

 

Combine Zest of 1- lime with 1-tsp of granulated sugar until crumbly…

Sprinkle over glaze…

Let set for 15-20 minutes before wrapping…

I doubt that will happen!…

You will definitely have to taste one of these loaves…

Maybe freeze the other one… or give to someone to enjoy…

The best!

Isn’t it pretty!
