# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare your loaf pan with nonstick spray or cake release.
02 -
In a medium mixing bowl, mix the chopped apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, and ginger together. Set aside.
03 -
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, granulated sugar, vegetable oil, sour cream, and vanilla extract until well combined.
04 -
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and kosher salt. Add to the wet mixture, mixing with a spatula or wooden spoon until almost combined.
05 -
Fold in ¾ of the apple-cinnamon mixture into the batter, then pour into the prepared loaf pan. Top with remaining apple mixture and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the internal temperature reads 200°F (93°C). Let the loaf cool in the pan for at least 30 minutes.
06 -
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk until smooth. Adjust consistency by adding more powdered sugar if too thin.
07 -
Pour the glaze generously over the apple fritter bread just before serving.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
Use a thermometer to ensure the internal temperature of the bread reaches 200°F (93°C).
02 -
Choose firm baking apples like Granny Smith, Pink Lady, or Honeycrisp for best results.
