Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh diced apples (peeled and cored)
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Cinnamon Sugar Swirl

  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Apples: Wash, peel, and dice your apples into small pieces to ensure they distribute evenly throughout the bread and soften during baking without becoming mushy.
  2. Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt to build a well-balanced base for the batter.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, beat eggs with sugar until light and fluffy, then mix in melted butter and milk to create a smooth, creamy mixture.
  4. Blend Wet and Dry Mixtures: Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently to avoid overmixing and to keep the batter tender.
  5. Add Apples and Make Cinnamon Swirls: Fold diced apples into the batter. In a separate bowl, mix cinnamon and sugar, then swirl it through the batter in the greased loaf pan for that signature fritter look and flavor.
  6. Bake the Bread: Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan and bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Notes

  • Use fresh, crisp apples for best texture and moisture control.
  • Don’t overmix the batter to avoid tough bread; mix until just combined.
  • Create clear cinnamon sugar swirls for beautiful appearance and added flavor.
  • Test doneness with a toothpick to ensure the bread is fully baked.
  • Cool bread thoroughly before slicing to prevent crumbling and enhance flavor.
