# Guide to Cooking:
01 -
Preheat oven to 175°C and grease a 23x13 cm loaf pan. Line with parchment paper for effortless removal.
02 -
Combine the chopped apples with 2 tablespoons granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon in a small bowl; set aside.
03 -
In a separate bowl, mix ⅓ cup packed light brown sugar with 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon until well combined.
04 -
In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then incorporate 1½ teaspoons vanilla extract.
05 -
Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Gradually add dry ingredients to the butter mixture alternately with whole milk, mixing just until incorporated.
06 -
Spread half of the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Layer with half the apple mixture followed by half the cinnamon sugar swirl. Repeat using the remaining batter, apples, and cinnamon sugar.
07 -
Gently drag a knife through the layers to form a marbled cinnamon effect.
08 -
Bake for 55 to 65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
09 -
Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
10 -
Whisk confectioners’ sugar, 2–3 tablespoons whole milk, and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle glaze over cooled loaf before slicing and serving.
# Extra Suggestions:
01 -
Use room temperature eggs for smoother batter texture.
02 -
Lining the pan with parchment paper ensures easy removal.
03 -
Start checking doneness at 55 minutes; baking times may vary by oven.
