Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup 1% milk
  • 2 cups peeled shredded apples (I used 3 big)
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Streusel – Nut Topping
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • 2 tablespoons cold butter
  • 1/2 cup walnuts or pecans chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Line an 9x5x3 inch loaf pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil allowing excess foil to hang over pan edges, and lightly grease with cooking spray. Set aside
  • Cream butter and sugars in a large bowl.
  • Add the milk, eggs, vanilla and apples and mix on low speed until combined.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the apple mixture on low speed until combined.
  • Spoon batter into prepared pan and spread evenly.
  • In a small mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar, flour and cinnamon.
  • Using a pastry blender or fork cut in the butter until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Add the walnuts and stir well. Sprinkle the streusel over the bread batter evenly.
  • Bake for 60-70 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
  • Let stand for 10 minutes, then using the foil overhang, lift the bread from the pan and transfer to a wire rack and leave to cool completely before foil removing.
  • Wrap and store overnight before slicing. (Or you know, eat it as soon as it’s cool enough - recommended lol ).
