  • To Store Apple Loaf: You can enjoy this apple loaf cake for up to 3 days after baking if stored at room temperature. Store the bread in an airtight container to best retain its moisture. If you store the pumpkin bread in the fridge, it will last for up to a week.
    To Freeze Apple Loaf: This apple loaf freezes well and can be stored in the freezer for up to 3 months. You can freeze it with or without the cream cheese glaze. To defrost it, remove the loaf from the freezer and allow the bread to reach room temperature before enjoying.
