Apple Fritter Bread: A Step-by-Step Recipe

Apple fritters are beloved for their warm, spiced apples and crisp, sugary exterior. Apple Fritter Bread captures all that goodness in a soft, moist loaf, perfect for breakfast, brunch, or an afternoon snack. Here’s how to make it from scratch.

Ingredients

For the Bread

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
• ¼ teaspoon ground allspice (optional, for extra warmth)
• ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
• ¾ cup granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ½ cup plain Greek yogurt or sour cream
• 2 medium apples (peeled, cored, and diced; Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work best)

For the Cinnamon Swirl

• ¼ cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon melted butter

For the Glaze (optional but recommended)

• ½ cup powdered sugar
• 1–2 teaspoons milk
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Step-by-Step Method

Step 1: Prepare the Oven and Pan

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan with butter or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together:
   • Flour
   • Baking powder
   • Baking soda
   • Salt
   • Cinnamon
   • Nutmeg
   • Allspice (if using)
2. Set aside. These spices give the bread its signature warm apple fritter flavor.

Step 3: Cream Butter and Sugar

1. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 2–3 minutes).
2. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
3. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

1. Add half of the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing just until combined.
2. Stir in the Greek yogurt or sour cream for moisture.
3. Add the remaining dry ingredients and mix until a thick batter forms. Be careful not to overmix, or the bread may become dense.
