Caramel Apple Fritter Bread is a moist, cinnamon-spiced quick bread packed with sweet apples and finished with a rich caramel drizzle, making it the perfect fall dessert or breakfast treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 small Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and diced small (about 2 cups)
  • ½ cup (100 g) light brown sugar, packed
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • ⅔ cup (133 g) granulated sugar
  • ½ cup (1 stick / 113 g) unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • ½ cup (122.5 g) whole milk, room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups (187.5 g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ cup (80 g) caramel sauce, for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a 9×5-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the diced apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Mix well to coat apples and set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together granulated sugar and butter until light and fluffy (2–3 minutes).
  4. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  5. Mix in milk and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Fold in ¾ of the apple mixture. Pour batter into prepared pan and spread evenly.
  8. Spoon the remaining apple mixture over the top of the batter.
  9. Bake for 65–70 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  10. Allow bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
  11. Drizzle caramel sauce over the warm bread. Cool completely before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Use a combination of tart and sweet apples for best flavor.
  • Don’t overmix the batter to keep the bread tender.
  • Drizzle caramel while bread is still warm for better absorption.
  • Freezes well without the caramel drizzle—add it after thawing.
  • Check doneness with a toothpick or internal temp of 200°F.
