Ingredients

Apple Bread Batter

½ cup softened butter 1 stick
1 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs large
½ cup milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
1 ½ cups green apple diced & peeled
½ cup walnuts or pecans chopped

Dutch Crumb Topping

5 tbsp cold butter
⅓ cup flour
2 tbsp granulated sugar
2 tbsp brown sugar
2 tsp ground cinnamon

Vanilla Glaze

1 tbsp melted butter
½ cup powdered sugar
1 tbsp milk
¼ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350° F. Line a bread pan with parchment paper or spray with non-stick baking spray.
Chop apples into small square pieces, set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together. Add in eggs, milk, and vanilla extract and stir well to incorporate.
Mix in the flour, salt, and baking powder. Fold in apples and nuts.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking pan.
To make the Dutch topping, combine the cold butter, brown and white sugars, flour, and cinnamon. Mix with a fork or pastry blender until crumbly. Then, sprinkle the topping mixture over the batter in the pan.
Bake for 55-60 minutes, until toothpick inserted in bread comes out clean. (Internal temperature of bread will be 200 degrees F when fully cooked.) Let cool before adding the glaze.
Whisk together the melted butter, powder sugar and milk until smooth. Remove the bread from the pan and drizzle the glaze over the top. Slice and serve. Enjoy!
