Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
0.5 teaspoon salt
0.5 cup granulated sugar
0.5 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
0.75 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups chopped apples (Honeycrisp or Granny Smith)
1 cup powdered sugar (for glaze, optional)
2 tablespoons milk (for glaze, optional)
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan. Line with parchment for easy removal.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
3. In another bowl, beat the eggs, then mix in granulated sugar, brown sugar, oil, and vanilla until smooth.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet, mixing until just combined.
5. Fold in the chopped apples gently to distribute them evenly.
6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 50–60 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
7. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. Optional: Mix powdered sugar with milk and drizzle over the cooled bread.
Notes
Be sure to chop apples into small pieces so they bake evenly into the loaf.
The glaze is optional but adds a lovely touch of sweetness and a pretty finish.
