Ingredients
Scale
- Bread
- 1/3 cup light brown sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 2/3 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 eggs
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 3/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup milk
- Apple layer
- 2 apples, peeled and chopped (Honeycrisp or Fuji work well)
- 2 tbsp white sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- Glaze
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1–2 tbsp milk
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
- Mix the brown sugar and 1 tsp cinnamon in a small bowl and set aside.
- In another bowl, cream together white sugar and butter until smooth. Beat in eggs and vanilla.
- In a separate bowl, combine flour and baking powder. Add to wet mixture and stir in milk until combined.
- Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan. Top with half the chopped apples, half the brown sugar-cinnamon mix, and lightly press in.
- Add the remaining batter, then top with the rest of the apples and cinnamon-sugar. Swirl gently with a knife.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
- Whisk glaze ingredients until smooth and drizzle over cooled bread.
Notes
- Best apples: Honeycrisp or Fuji work well for apple fritter bread. Other apples can be used if these aren’t available.
- To customize sweetness, adjust the brown sugar and glaze amounts to taste.
- For a thicker glaze, use more powdered sugar; for a thinner glaze, add more milk a teaspoon at a time.
- Let the bread cool about 10 minutes in the pan before transferring to a rack for cleaner slices.
- Leftover slices store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer keeping.
