My kitchen smells amazing right now! No candle needed. Making this bread was the perfect idea for this gorgeous fall day. Happy October! Not only does it smell delicious, it tastes like heaven. The season of fall filling your senses. So c’mon! Let’s get to baking this beautiful bread…

What you will need:

Loaf pan lined with foil and sprayed with non-stick spray

For the batter:

1/3 cup light brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup milk
1 Granny Smith Apple peeled and chopped into small pieces

To make:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit. In a small bowl, stir together brown sugar and cinnamon. Set aside. In another small bowl, whisk together flour and baking powder. Set aside.

In a large bowl (or bowl of your electric mixer), beat sugar and butter until smooth. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Add in dry ingredients and milk, and mix until combined.

Evenly spread about half the batter into prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle half the apple pieces and then half the cinnamon sugar on top. Pour the rest of the batter on top of that, spreading with the back of a spoon to make sure it’s even. Sprinkle the rest of the apples and cinnamon sugar on top.

Bake for about 45 minutes. Let cool on wire rack completely before removing from pan. Enjoy (but not all at once)!
