Cinnamon-Butterscotch Quick Bread

Another semi-homemade recipe. Like I said before, I am not much of a baker - I would rather get help from Betty Crocker or Duncan Hines. Today, I saw the box of Cinnamon Streusel, but decided on making quick bread instead of muffins. The recipe was on the back, actually. I just enhanced it by putting in butterscotch morsels. 

I thought it went well because the morsels added some moisture to the often-dry bread. It tasted great, too. The butterscotch was a big hit!

What you need:

1 box cinnamon streusel muffin mix
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup water
1/3 cup butterscotch morsels
2 eggs


What to do:

Heat oven to 375°F. Grease the bottom of an 8 X 4 loaf pan with butter.

In a medium bowl, stir muffin mix, flour, water, oil, and eggs until blended. Gently fold in the butterscotch morsels. Spread batter in the pan and sprinkle with streusel. 

Bake 40 to 50 minutes or until top is golden brown and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool for 15 minutes.

Run a butter knife around the edges of the pan and carefully remove. Place on a rack and cool completely.


Tips, Tricks and Tweaks:

1. Don't have a loaf pan? Make muffins!  :-)
2. Watch what you are baking. Oven temperature varies, so don't always trust what the recipe says. Be proactive!
