Ingredients

For the Bread:

2 large baking apples (Granny Smith recommended)

1/2 cup light brown sugar

1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

1/2 tsp ground ginger

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp kosher salt

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup vegetable oil

1/2 cup full-fat sour cream

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 large egg

For the Glaze:

1 cup powdered sugar

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

2 tbsp milk

Instructions

  • Prepare the Apple Mixture:
    In a medium bowl, combine peeled and chopped apples with brown sugar, cinnamon, and ginger. Set aside.

  • Mix Wet Ingredients:
    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, granulated sugar, vegetable oil, sour cream, and vanilla extract until smooth.

  • Combine Dry Ingredients:
    In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.

  • Incorporate Apples:
    Gently fold in three-quarters of the apple mixture into the batter.

  • Bake:
    Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan, top with the remaining apple mixture, and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  • Cool:
    Allow the bread to cool in the pan for at least 30 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

  • Prepare the Glaze:
    Mix sifted powdered sugar with vanilla extract and milk until smooth. Adjust consistency as desired.

  • Glaze the Bread:
    Drizzle the glaze over the cooled bread before slicing and serving.
