- Wire Cooling Rack
Ingredients
- 2 medium apples, peeled, cored, diced (Granny Smith or similar)
- 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2-3 tbsp milk or cream
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- In a small bowl, combine diced apples, 1/3 cup brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon cinnamon. Toss to coat and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, 1/2 cup brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, whisk milk, eggs, melted butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Add to dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
- Spread half the batter in the loaf pan, add apple mixture in an even layer, then top with remaining batter.
- Bake for 55-65 minutes, until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool bread in pan for 15-20 minutes. Remove to wire rack to cool completely before glazing.
- Whisk powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons milk, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla until smooth, adding more milk as needed for drizzling consistency. Drizzle over cooled bread.
Notes
Cool bread completely before glazing to prevent glaze from melting. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for longer freshness.
