Ingredients

Scale

Batter Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter
  • 2/3 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 1.5 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1.5 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1.75 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/2 cup Milk

Apple Mixture

  • 2 medium Apples, diced
  • 1/3 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1 tsp Ground Cinnamon

Glaze

  • 1/2 cup Powdered Sugar
  • 1–2 tbsp Milk
  • 1/4 tsp Vanilla Extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9×5-inch loaf pan to ensure easy removal of the bread.
  2. Toss Apples: In a bowl, combine the diced apples with brown sugar and cinnamon. Toss them well until they are evenly coated, then set aside to allow the flavors to meld.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. This step helps create a tender texture.
  4. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Then mix in the vanilla extract for enhanced flavor.
  5. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking powder to evenly distribute the leavening.
  6. Combine Batter: Gradually add the dry mixture alternately with the milk to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined to avoid overworking the batter.
  7. Layer Batter and Apples: Spoon half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan, then layer half of the apple mixture on top. Add the remaining batter and then the rest of the apples. Use a knife to gently swirl the batter and apples together for a marbled effect.
  8. Bake: Bake the loaf in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Tent the bread with foil if the top starts browning too quickly to prevent burning.
  9. Cool: Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Prepare and Drizzle Glaze: Mix powdered sugar with 1 to 2 tablespoons of milk and vanilla extract until smooth and pourable. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled bread for a sweet finishing touch.

Notes

  • For a dairy-free version, substitute the milk with plant-based milk such as almond or oat milk.
  • Ensure not to overmix the batter to keep the bread moist and tender.
  • If the top is browning too quickly during baking, tent the bread with aluminum foil.
  • Use tart apples like Granny Smith for a contrast between sweet and tart flavors.
  • Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
