How To Make Cinnamon Swirl Apple Fritter Bread
- Preheat the oven to 350˚F. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper and set aside.
- Make your filling/topping. In a small bowl combine brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. Mix to combine and set aside.
- Make your cake. In a large bowl combine sugar, melted butter, sour cream, eggs, milk and vanilla extract. Mix by hand (or use an electric mixer ) until ingredients are combined and smooth. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix to combine.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, and mix until just combined (don’t overmix the batter).
- Peel, core and chop apple into 1/2 inch cubes.
- Add all but a handful of the chopped apples and fold into the batter.
- Pour half the batter into your prepared loaf pan and smooth out into a single layer.
- Next add half of the cinnamon sugar filling and smooth out. Using a flat butter knife cut swirls through the batter.
- Top with the remaining batter and smooth out again into a single layer. Add the handful of reserved apples and top with the rest of the cinnamon sugar mixture. Again use the butter knife to cut swirls through the batter.
- Bake in the oven for 50-55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
- Let cool on a wire rack for 10-20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make your glaze. Add sifted icing sugar to a bowl. Whisk in hot water until you reach the desired consistency. Spoon or drizzle the glaze over the top of the loaf. Let the glaze set for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
