Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Show off this bread's assets! Fan slices on a serving tray to reveal the cream cheese layer in the center. How about Orange-Cranberry Cream Cheese Swirl? Substitute orange juice for the apple juice and add 1 teaspoon grated orange peel to the batter in step 2.
