Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 2/3 cup (133g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups (190g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 3/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) milk
  • 2 medium apples, peeled, cored & diced (mix of tart & sweet)
  • 1/3 cup (67g) brown sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup (60g) powdered sugar
  • 12 tbsp milk (for glaze)
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract (for glaze)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, toss diced apples with brown sugar and cinnamon. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add vanilla.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk, mixing until just combined.
  5. Pour half of the batter into the loaf pan, top with half of the apple mixture, then repeat with the remaining batter and apples. Lightly swirl with a knife for a marbled effect.
  6. Bake for 50–55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla for the glaze until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled bread.
  9. Slice and enjoy warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Use a mix of sweet and tart apples for the best flavor. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days.
