A soft, buttery loaf layered with cinnamon-sugar apples and finished with a sweet vanilla glaze. Tastes like a bakery apple fritter, no frying required.
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 apples, peeled, cored, and diced
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup powdered sugar (glaze)
2 tablespoons milk (glaze)

4.Whisk flour and baking powder; add to butter mixture alternately with milk.

6.Bake 50–60 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
7.Cool 15 minutes in pan, then cool completely on a wire rack.
