Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a snack, this loaf combines warm spices and fresh apple chunks swirled into a buttery batter for a comforting home-baked experience.

Ingredients

Scale

Bread

  • 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
  • 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 and oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9×5-inch loaf pan to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal of the bread once baked.
  2. Mix apple filling: In a bowl, toss the diced apples with brown sugar and ground cinnamon until the pieces are thoroughly coated. Set this flavorful mix aside to infuse while you prepare the batter.
  3. Cream butter and sugar: In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy. This process incorporates air into the batter, helping the bread stay moist and tender.
  4. Add eggs and vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time to fully combine, then add the vanilla extract to enhance the overall flavor of the bread.
  5. Combine dry ingredients and alternate with milk: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking powder. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients alternately with the milk, mixing just until combined to avoid overworking the batter and keeping the bread light.
  6. Layer the batter and apples: Spoon half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Spread half of the apple mixture over the batter. Repeat by adding the remaining batter, then the rest of the apples on top. Use a knife to gently swirl the batter and apples together for a marbled effect.
  7. Bake the bread: Place the loaf in the preheated oven and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top starts to brown too quickly, tent it loosely with foil to prevent burning.
  8. Cool and glaze: Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. Mix the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract to create a smooth glaze and drizzle it over the cooled loaf for a sweet finishing touch.

Notes

  • For a dairy-free option, substitute regular milk with plant-based milk in both the batter and glaze.
  • Ensure apples are well coated with brown sugar and cinnamon for best flavor distribution.
  • Tent the bread with foil if it browns too fast to avoid burning the crust.
  • Use a sharp knife to swirl the batter and apples gently, maintaining a marbled texture without mixing completely.
  • Allow the bread to cool before glazing to prevent the glaze from melting and running off.
