Description

This Apple Fritter Bread is a moist and flavorful loaf that combines the warm spices of cinnamon with tender chunks of apple. Swirled with cinnamon sugar and topped with a sweet vanilla glaze, this bread makes a perfect breakfast treat or dessert for any occasion.

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup milk

Add-ins & Toppings

  • 2 apples, peeled, cored, and chopped
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon sugar

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 loaf pan thoroughly to prevent sticking during baking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon to evenly distribute the leavening and spices.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, cream the softened unsalted butter with sugar until light and fluffy, then beat in the eggs and vanilla extract until fully combined.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry: Gradually add the dry mixture to the creamed wet ingredients, alternating with milk. Start and end with the dry ingredients, mixing gently to create a smooth batter.
  5. Add Apples and Cinnamon Sugar: Fold in the chopped apples and cinnamon sugar so they’re evenly spread throughout the batter without overmixing.
  6. Layer Batter in Pan: Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan, sprinkle with additional apples and cinnamon sugar, then pour the remaining batter on top. Swirl gently with a knife to create a marbled effect.
  7. Bake the Bread: Bake the loaf in the preheated oven for 55 to 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Prepare and Apply Glaze: While the bread cools, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle this glaze evenly over the cooled bread for a sweet finishing touch.
  9. Serve: Slice the bread into 8 to 9 servings, serve, and enjoy your delicious apple fritter bread.

Notes

  • Ensure apples are well drained to prevent excess moisture in the batter.
  • Use tart apples like Granny Smith for a nice balance of sweetness and tartness.
  • Allow bread to cool completely before glazing to avoid melting the glaze too much.
  • The cinnamon sugar swirl adds a signature flavor and texture, don’t skip layering it.
  • You can substitute milk with a plant-based milk to make dairy-free adjustments.
