Ingredients
Scale
- For the Bread:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup diced apples (peeled and cored, such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- For the Glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2-3 tablespoons milk
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add the vegetable oil and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
- Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Add Apples: Fold in the diced apples carefully.
- Pour into Pan: Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top.
- Bake: Bake for 55-65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top browns too quickly, cover it with aluminum foil.
- Cool: Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Prepare the Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Adjust the milk for desired consistency.
- Glaze the Bread: Once the bread is completely cool, drizzle the glaze over the top.
Notes
- Apple Choices: Firm apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work best for this recipe.
- Storage: Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the fridge for up to a week.
