🍎 Apple Pie Bread Recipe

Ingredients

For the bread:

• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• ½ tsp baking soda
• ½ tsp salt
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• ¼ tsp nutmeg (optional)
• ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
• ¾ cup granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• ½ cup sour cream (or Greek yogurt)
• 1 ½ cups peeled, diced apples (Honeycrisp, Fuji, or Granny Smith)

For the cinnamon-sugar swirl:

• ¼ cup brown sugar
• 1 tsp cinnamon

Instructions

1. Prep:
   Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5 loaf pan or line with parchment.
2. Mix dry ingredients:
   In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
3. Cream butter + sugar:
   In a separate large bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, then vanilla.
4. Combine:
   Mix in the sour cream, then gently fold in the dry ingredients until just combined. Stir in the diced apples.
5. Layer + swirl:
   Pour half the batter into the loaf pan. Sprinkle half the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Add remaining batter and top with the rest of the cinnamon-sugar. Use a knife to gently swirl.
6. Bake:
   Bake for 55–65 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool in the pan 10 minutes before removing.
