3. Cream Sugar and Butter
• In a large mixing bowl, cream together the 2/3 cup white sugar and 1/2 cup softened butter until light and fluffy.
4. Add Eggs and Vanilla
• Beat in the eggs one at a time, making sure each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Stir in 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract.
5. Combine Dry Ingredients
• Sift together the all-purpose flour and baking powder. Gradually mix these dry ingredients into the wet mixture, alternating with 1/2 cup milk, until just combined.
6. Layer Batter and Apples
• Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top. Layer half of the cinnamon-sugar-coated apples over the batter, pressing them in gently. Repeat with the remaining batter and apple mixture. Swirl through the layers with a knife to create a marbled effect.
7. Bake
• Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
8. Cool and Glaze
• Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Mix the powdered sugar with 2-3 tablespoons of milk or cream until smooth, and drizzle over the cooled bread.
