Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 0.75 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoons salt
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon divided
  • 0.25 teaspoons ground nutmeg
  • 2 large eggs
  • 0.5 cups unsalted butter melted and slightly cooled
  • 0.75 cups whole milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups apples peeled, cored, and diced small (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
  • 0.5 cups light brown sugar for cinnamon swirl
  • 1 cups powdered sugar for glaze
  • 2 tablespoons milk for glaze
  • 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract for glaze

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and line with a parchment sling.
  • In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, salt, 1.0 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, and granulated sugar.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk eggs, melted butter, milk, and 2.0 teaspoons vanilla until smooth.
  • Pour wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Fold in the diced apples.
  • In a small bowl, mix brown sugar with the remaining 1.0 teaspoon cinnamon to make the swirl.
  • Spread half of the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon-brown sugar over the batter. Add remaining batter and top with remaining cinnamon-brown sugar. Swirl gently with a knife.
  • Bake 50 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  • Cool in pan for 10 minutes, then lift out and cool completely on a rack.
  • Whisk powdered sugar, 2.0 tablespoons milk, and 0.5 teaspoon vanilla until smooth and pourable. Adjust with a few drops of milk if needed.
  • Drizzle glaze over cooled loaf. Slice into 10 pieces and serve.

Notes

Use firm, tart-sweet apples for the best texture. Store leftovers covered at room temperature for 2 days or refrigerate up to 5 days. For extra crunch, add 0.5 cups chopped toasted pecans to the batter.
