How to Make Amish Apple Fritter Bread
Preheat oven to 350ºF. Prepare an 8.5×4.5×2.5-inch loaf pan by greasing it with non-stick cooking spray.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the brown sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon; set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the 2/3 cup granulated sugar and butter until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs and vanilla, just until combined.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder. Add the flour mixture to the wet mixture and stir until combined. Add the milk and mix until smooth.
Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread out evenly.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the apple filling ingredients.
Pour half of the apples over the batter in the pan.
Spread on the remaining batter.
Top with the remaining apples and press the apples down slightly.
Sprinkle the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture over top of the bread.
Bake at 350ºF for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for about 30 minutes. In a small bowl, combine the glaze ingredients until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled bread.
How to Store Leftovers
Keep the bread wrapped in plastic or in an airtight container. It will keep in the refrigerator or on the counter for up to four days.

So good!!! But for some reason mine came out very crumbly. Do you know what I may have did wrong?
My first did a bit too. I added another 1/4 c flour and it held together much better
I’ve made this bread for family and for friends. I have received excellent reviews from both!
How do I print the recipes?
There is a “print button” in the recipe box.
This is wry good, but mine took longer to bake and I’m wondering if there should be some salt in the batter.
Love this recipe. I use it as my fruit bread base now. I do add an additional 1/4c flour though. I somethings need to add 10 minutes to cook time depending on what else I modified. So far I have modified it for a blackberry bread and a blueberry cream cheese one.
Thank you so much for sharing this amazing recipe….I’ve made this recipe twice this week!! My family LOVES this bread!! I double the recipe and make a normal loaf for our family and use my Pampered Chef mini stoneware loaf pan and make four small loaves to share. My mini loaf pan makes 4 (6×3) loaves and takes only 35 mins. to bake. Â
A very tasty Apple Fritter Bread. Loved it. I may add a bit more flour to my need one.
Made this yesterday. Love it!! I mixed the apples into the batter after letting them sit and marinate with sugar and cinnamon. Also reduced the sugar in the batter to half cup. So amazing.
