Another day, another apple recipe! It is officially fall and it is time for all of the apple sweets!

This one is super easy, tasty, and perfect to have with some of those apples you picked from the orchard.

Ingredients

Apple Bread

• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 egg
• 1 cup milk
• 1/3 cup vegetable oil
• 1 small to medium apple, cored, peeled, and diced
• 1/2 tablespoon cinnamon

Topping

• 1/3 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Cream Cheese Glaze

• 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 2 tablespoons butter, softened
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar

instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350ºF. Grease a loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
2. To make the bread, combine granulated sugar, flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside. In a medium bowl beat the eggs, milk, and oil until just combined. Stir apples in with the cinnamon in a separate bowl. Lastly, in a small bowl stir together the 1/3 cup granulated sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon for the topping.
3. To combine, gradually add dry mixture to wet mixture until just combined. Fold in the apples. Spoon the cinnamon-sugar topping onto the loaf and swirl around with a knife.
4. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
5. Cool on a wire rack. Meanwhile, make the glaze. Mix all glaze ingredients together until it is smooth. Warm in the microwave until the glaze becomes a pourable consistency. Drizzle over the top of the cooled apple bread.
6. Apple bread can be stored in a sealed plastic bag or covered in plastic wrap at room temperature for up to 2 days or in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
