Cup of Yum
Loaf Batter:
- In a large bowl, cream the granulated sugar and butter together until creamy. Add in the eggs and vanilla, then mix until combined. 2/3 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup salted butter, 2 large eggs, 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
- Add in the flour and baking powder alternately with the milk and mix just until combined. Then fold in the apples. Do not overmix! 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 ¾ teaspoons baking powder, ½ cup 2% milk
- Pour half of the bread batter into your prepared pan and set aside the rest. Sprinkle 1/2 of the sugar mixture over the batter. Spoon the remaining loaf batter on top, then sprinkle with the remaining sugar mixture.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan and then cool completely on a wire rack before glazing. **The exact baking time will depend on the type and size of baking pan you have. Check the bread after 40 minutes and then every 5 minutes after until the bread tests done.
For the glaze:
- In a small bowl, mix together the powdered sugar and heavy cream. Then, drizzle all over the top of your finished bread.
Notes
- Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 48 hours.
- Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 48 hours.
- I used salted butter so did not add any salt. If you have unsalted butter or are concerned about sweetness, add 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- The calories shown are based on the bread being cut into 10 slices, with 1 serving being 1 slice of bread. Since different brands of ingredients have different nutritional information, the calories shown are just an estimate.
