For the Bread:
- 2 medium baking apples (peeled & chopped)
- ½ cup light brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 large egg (room temperature)
- ⅓ cup white granulated sugar
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- ¼ cup full-fat sour cream (room temperature)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
-
For the Glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar (sifted)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons milk (whole milk or dairy-free alternative)
Instructions
- Prepare the apples: Toss chopped apples with brown sugar, cinnamon, and ginger. Set aside.
- Mix wet ingredients: In a bowl, whisk egg, granulated sugar, vegetable oil, sour cream, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Combine dry ingredients: In another bowl, mix flour, baking soda, and salt. Slowly add to the wet ingredients and stir until combined.
- Fold in apples: Gently fold in three-quarters of the apple mixture.
- Layer the batter: Pour half into a greased loaf pan, add remaining apples, then top with the rest of the batter. Swirl slightly with a knife.
- Bake: Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 50-55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool: Let it rest in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Make the glaze: Whisk powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk until smooth. Drizzle over cooled bread and serve.
Notes
- Use Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Pink Lady apples for the best results.
- Don’t overmix the batter to keep the bread soft and moist.
- Store at room temperature for 2 days, in the fridge for a week, or freeze for up to 3 months.
