Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups Milk
- 1.5 cups Apples, peeled, cored, and diced
- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cups Brown sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set it aside.
In a large bowl, mix the granulated sugar and melted butter until well combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and milk.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold the diced apples into the batter until evenly distributed.
In a small bowl, mix together the ground cinnamon and brown sugar to create the cinnamon swirl mixture.
Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it in an even layer. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the batter.
Add the remaining batter on top and spread it evenly. Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture on top. Use a knife or skewer to gently swirl the cinnamon mixture through the batter to create a marbled effect.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
