Awesome Country Apple Fritter Bread

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Use a 9x5-inch loaf pan and spray with non-stick spray or line with foil and spray with non-stick spray to get out easily for slicing.

Step 2

Mix ⅓ cup brown sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon together in a bowl. Set aside.

Step 3

Combine & whisk 1 & ½ cups flour and 1 & ¾ teaspoons baking powder together in another bowl and set aside.

Step 4

In another medium-sized bowl, beat ⅔ cup granulated sugar and ½ cup softened butter together using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.

Step 5

Beat in 2 eggs, one at a time until blended in; add in 1 & ½ teaspoons vanilla extract and mix in.

Step 6

Add the flour mixture into creamed butter mixture and mix until blended.

Step 7

Mix ½ cup milk into batter and continue mixing until smooth.

Step 8

Pour half the batter into the prepared loaf pan; add half the chopped apple mixture with the sugar and cinnamon added in.

Step 9

Sprinkle ½ of the brown sugar/cinnamon mixture you set aside earlier, on top of apple layer.

Step 10

Pour the remaining batter over apple layer and top with remaining chopped apples, then the remaining brown sugar/cinnamon mixture.

Step 11

Lightly pat apples into batter; swirl brown sugar mixture through apples using knife or spoon.

Step 12

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean, approximately 60 minutes.

Step 13

To make glaze, mix ½ cup powdered sugar and 1 to 3 tablespoons milk or cream together until well mixed. (Place mixture in microwave for 10 seconds to get it pourable if it needs a boost.)

Step 14

Let loaf rest in pan for about 15 minutes before removing from pan to let cool off completely on a cooling rack. Drizzle with glaze.

Step 15

If you want more glaze, make a double batch. :)
