Apple Fritter Bread
Thankfully this bread tastes as decadent as the apple fritters of my childhood. No deep frying required.
It’s the best apple bread I’ve ever had. Actually it’s more like cake disguised as bread but I’m not complaining.
Baking with apples in the fall is always a given but in the winter when seasonal fruit options are very limited, there’s always apples.
The bread comes together quickly, easily, without a mixer or yeast, and with ingredients you likely have on hand.
There are three bowls of ingredients going because you pour half the batter into the loaf pan, top with apples and cinnamon, top with cinnamon-brown sugar, and repeat all three. Remaining batter, apples, cinnamon-brown sugar. Bake.
The apples and sour cream (or Greek yogurt) keep the bread so soft and moist and if that’s not enough, the glaze lends even more moisture, gooeyness, and flavor.

ingredienst
- Apple-Cinnamon Mixture
- 1 large apple or 2 small peeled, cored, and diced into 1/4-inch pieces (about 1 heaping cup when diced; try Fuji, Gala, Envy, Honeycrisp or similar)
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 heaping teaspoon cinnamon
Bread
- 1 large egg
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup canola or vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt (lite okay)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
Glaze
- 1 cup confectioners’ sugar
- about 2 to 3 tablespoons cream or milk, or as necessary for consistency
DIRECTIONS:
- Preheat oven to 350F. Spray an 8×4-inch loaf pan with floured cooking spray, or grease and flour the pan; set aside. Updated to add: some readers have made this successfully in a 9×5 pan, while others who’ve tried using a 9×5 haven’t had enough batter. Using an 8×4 should guarantee enough batter to properly fill the pan.
- Apple-Cinnamon Mixture– To a small bowl, add all ingredients, and stir to combine; set aside.
