Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup milk

Additional Ingredients

  • 2 apples, peeled, cored, and chopped

Topping

  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Glaze

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan to ensure the bread doesn’t stick.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. Stir well to evenly distribute the leavening and spices.
  3. Whisk Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth and fully combined.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry: Gradually stir the wet ingredients into the dry mixture until just combined—avoid overmixing to keep the bread light.
  5. Add Apples: Gently fold in the peeled, cored, and chopped apples to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.
  6. Layer Batter and Topping: Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  7. Prepare Cinnamon Sugar Topping: In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon.
  8. Add Topping: Sprinkle half of the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the batter in the pan.
  9. Top with Remaining Batter and Topping: Pour the remaining batter over the topping layer, then sprinkle the rest of the cinnamon sugar mixture on top.
  10. Create Marbled Effect: Use a knife or skewer to gently swirl through the batter and cinnamon sugar, creating a marbled pattern.
  11. Bake: Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  12. Prepare Glaze: While the bread is cooling, mix the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  13. Glaze the Bread: Drizzle the prepared glaze over the cooled bread, allowing it to set before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Use firm apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp for best texture.
  • Make sure the loaf is completely cooled before glazing to prevent the glaze from melting.
  • Storage: Keep bread wrapped at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
  • For a richer flavor, substitute half the vegetable oil with melted butter.
  • You can add chopped nuts like walnuts for extra crunch if desired.
