Ingredients

Scale

Bread Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 apples, peeled, cored, and diced
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 cup milk

Glaze

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk

Instructions

  1. Prepare Oven and Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5 inch loaf pan to prevent the bread from sticking during baking.
  2. Mix Brown Sugar and Cinnamon: In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Toss the diced apples in a small amount of this mixture to evenly coat them, enhancing their flavor in the bread.
  3. Cream Sugar and Butter: In a medium bowl, beat the granulated sugar and softened butter until the mixture is light and fluffy. Then add the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing well to incorporate all ingredients.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients: Whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking powder. Gradually add these dry ingredients to the creamed mixture alternately with the milk, mixing gently to avoid overworking the batter.
  5. Layer the Batter: Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Spoon half of the coated apple mixture evenly over the batter, followed by half of the remaining brown sugar and cinnamon mix. Repeat layering with the remaining batter and apple mixture, finishing with a sprinkle of the brown sugar-cinnamon mixture on top.
  6. Bake: Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes. The bread is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool: Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Then carefully remove the bread from the pan and allow it to cool completely on the wire rack before glazing.
  8. Glaze and Serve: Mix the powdered sugar and milk to create a smooth glaze. Drizzle this over the cooled bread for a sweet finishing touch before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Use tart apples like Granny Smith for a nice balance of sweet and tangy flavors.
  • Make sure to soften the butter to room temperature for easy creaming with sugar.
  • Do not overmix the batter to keep the bread light and tender.
  • Allow the bread to cool completely before adding the glaze to prevent it from melting off.
  • This bread can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerated for up to a week.
