Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 cups diced apples (peeled and cored)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon until well combined.
In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until incorporated.
Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, and mix until just combined.
Gently fold in the diced apples until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
