Apple Cinnamon Bread

Step 1

Heat the saucepan over medium-high heat, add apple, light brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Stir and cook all ingredients for 2 to 3 minutes until the sugar melts. Turn off the heat, and set the filling aside.

Step 2

Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C).

Step 3

Grease two small loaf pans (5.75" x3") with butter. You may also use one regular loaf pan.

Step 4

Beat light brown sugar, ground cinnamon, granulated sugar and unsalted butter into a large mixing bowl until smooth.

Step 5

Whisk in eggs and vanilla extract.

Step 6

Sift all-purpose flour and baking powder into the mixture, keep whisking while adding milk. Continue mixing until all ingredients are well combined.

Step 7

Divide the batter into two equal portions. Transfer half of the batter to the baking pan. Add a layer of apple filling, then cover the filling layer with the remaining batter. Finally, top the batter with more apple bites. (repeat the same for the remaining batter and filling)

Step 8

Bake for 35 minutes. Check the cake is cooked by using a toothpick inserted into the center and comes out clean.

Step 9

Cool down the bread in the pan for 10 minutes. Unmold and slice it. It tastes the best when fresh and warm out of the oven.
