Description
An easy Amish-style apple fritter bread that’s soft, moist, and filled with warm cinnamon spice and tender chunks of apple, perfect for cozy breakfasts or afternoon coffee.
Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 large eggs
½ cup milk
¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 medium apples, peeled and diced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
- In a separate bowl, mix eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth.
- Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined.
- Fold in diced apples, being careful not to overmix.
- Pour batter into prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 50–60 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool for 10 minutes before removing from the pan, then cool completely before slicing.
Notes
Use firm apples so they hold their shape during baking.
Avoid overmixing to keep the bread tender.
Optional glaze or chopped nuts can be added for variation.
Great baked a day ahead, as flavors deepen overnight.
