Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 Granny Smith Apples peeled and diced
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts

Glaze

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 2-3 teaspoons milk

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9x5 loaf pan with non-stick spray. Place a rectangle piece of parchment paper in the loaf pan that hangs over the sides.
  • Mix brown sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl beat butter and sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time just until blended, add vanilla.
  • In another bowl whisk flour, salt, and baking powder together, then add to wet mixture and whisk just until blended. Whisk in milk just until smooth.
  • Pour half the mixture into the loaf pan. Add half of the brown sugar mixture then half of the apples, gently pat into the batter.
  • Add the rest of the batter into the loaf pan spreading gently with a spatula, followed by the remaining apples, walnuts, and remaining brown sugar mixture. Lightly pat.
  • Place the loaf in the center of the oven and bake for 50-55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let cool for 15-20 minutes on a baking rack. Use the parchment paper to pull the loaf right out, drizzle with glaze.

For the Glaze

  • Whisk powdered sugar and milk together in a small bowl until combined.

Notes

I like to use tart apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp.
Be sure to spray the loaf pan well or use a piece of parchment paper.
Your baking time can vary slightly depending on the type of apples you use always check that its done when a toothpick that comes out clean.
If your loaf starts to brown too quickly place a piece of aluminum foil on top to protect it.
If the glaze is to thick add a little more milk if its to thin add a little more powdered sugar.
