- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tsp baking powder

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and prepare a bread pan by lining it with parchment paper or spraying with non-stick baking spray.
- Chop apples into small square pieces and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
- Add eggs, milk, and vanilla extract, stirring well to incorporate.
- Mix in flour, salt, and baking powder until just combined.
- Fold in diced apples and chopped nuts gently, then pour the batter into the bread pan, spreading it evenly.
- For the crumb topping, mix cold butter, flour, both sugars, and cinnamon with a fork until crumbly. Sprinkle evenly over the batter.
- Bake for 55 to 60 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the bread comes out clean. Allow to cool fully before removing from the pan.
- For the glaze, whisk together melted butter, powdered sugar, and milk until smooth. Drizzle over cooled bread, slice, and serve.
Notes
- Use fresh, tart green apples for optimal flavor and texture.
- Ensure your butter is cold when making the crumb topping for the perfect texture.
- Let bread cool completely to prevent crumbling when slicing.
