- 0.5 oz butter
- â…“ Cup Chopped Pecans
- ½ teaspoon CinnamonÂ
Â
For the Quick Bread:
- 2 Eggs

- ½ Cup Whole MilkÂ
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- ½ Cup Brown Sugar Â
- Âľ Cup White sugar
- 2 ÂĽ cups all-purpose flour Â
- 2 tsp cinnamon powder
- 1 ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- 1 large apple, or two small ones, peeled and diced (Granny Smith is most popular)
- ½ tsp salt
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a loaf pan with parchment paper and spray with cooking spray. Set aside.
-
Prepare the crumble by mixing very cold cubed butter with the sugar in a bowl. Use a fork to combine. Then add the cinnamon and flour, and use your hands to achieve a crumbly texture. Finally, add the chopped pecans and combine. Set crumble aside.
-
For the wet ingredients, whisk (or beat) the eggs with the oil, milk, and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Add the white and brown sugars, and combine.
-
For the dry ingredients, mix the flour, cinnamon powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in another bowl.
-
Incorporate the dry ingredients with the wet ones.
-
Fold in the diced apples and stir.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, shake it to the sides, and onto the counter, so it bakes evenly.
-
Sprinkle the prepared crumble on top and bake on the center rack in the oven for 60 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
