- Preheat the Oven and Prepare the Pan:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan, or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- Prepare the Bread Batter:
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the granulated sugar and softened butter until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until well combined. Stir in the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in the chopped apples and cinnamon until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Make the Topping:
- In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar, flour, and cinnamon for the topping.
- Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in the brown sugar until well combined.
- Assemble and Bake:
- Pour half of the bread batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly.
- Sprinkle half of the topping mixture over the batter. Pour the remaining batter over the topping layer, smoothing the top with a spatula. Sprinkle the remaining topping evenly over the batter.
- Lightly press the topping into the batter with the back of a spoon or your fingertips.
- Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- If the top of the bread starts to brown too quickly, you can loosely cover it with aluminum foil during the last 15-20 minutes of baking.
- Once baked, remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
