This Kiwi Walnut Bread has a sweet nutty flavor to it. A great bread recipe if you have ripe Kiwi Fruit on hand.
Jump to:
This Kiwi Walnut Bread is one of the most interesting bread recipes I have made in a long time. Not really because of the Kiwi Fruit but that this recipe does not call for much liquid at all.
The batter for this bread is thicker than most other bread recipes you will find out there which results in a sweet but dense bread. The kiwi fruit does help keep it moist though.
🥜 Nut Allergies
This recipe may contain peanuts or other nuts and seeds as one of its ingredients. Please take the appropriate precautions.
My family loves Kiwi Fruit. We usually just peel and cut them up and eat them with other fruit. Sometimes we put some in our greek yogurt or on a salad. This is the first time I make bread with it though.
The easiest way to tell if a Kiwi Fruit is ripe and ready to eat is when you press the outside of the kiwi and it's slightly soft. If it's hard your kiwi is not ready to eat.

How much cream cheese in the kiwi walnut bread?
Thank you.
There's no cream cheese in the bread itself. It's optionally used spreading on the bread as a frosting. You can use as much or as little as you want!
