🕰️ A Little History
Apple and cinnamon have been paired together for centuries in home baking. Apples were often used in fall desserts because they stored well through colder months, while cinnamon added warmth and spice. Swirl loaves became popular as a simple way to add flavor and beauty to everyday cakes, turning basic ingredients into something special.
🧾 Ingredients
For the Cinnamon Swirl:
- 1/3 cup light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
For the Loaf Batter:
- 2/3 cup white sugar
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 2 eggs
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Apple Layer:
- 1–2 apples, peeled and finely chopped 🍎
🔪 Preparation
- Preheat oven to 175°C / 350°F.
- Grease and line a loaf pan.
- Mix brown sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl and set aside.
🥣 Instructions
- Cream butter and white sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing well.
- Stir in vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with milk.
- Pour half of the batter into the loaf pan.
- Sprinkle half the cinnamon sugar and half the apples.
