This easy Apple Fritter Bread is super moist, studded with tart apples, a cinnamon swirl and drizzled with a sweet vanilla glaze!
Move over banana bread, apple cider donuts and pumpkin cake roll (although this one is bomb). Apple Fritter bread is here and she’s THE BEST!
This bread just taste like Fall and the smell coming from your oven smells like grandma’s kitchen.
You might want to make a second loaf because this one won’t last!
Good quality butter is key when baking and that’s why I use Minerva Dairy Butter.
It is slow churned and 85% butterfat butter which is results in a creamier, richer, and more flavorful batter.

common questions and helpful tips
- What type of apples should I use?
- I choose to use granny smith apples because they are tart and pair well with the amount of sugar in this bread. It turned out perfect. However, feel free to use any type of apple variety.
- What’s the best way to peel and core an apple?
- I use a vegetable peeler and start at the stem and go around in a horizontal direction. Then I peel in a vertical direction all the way around the apple until all of the peel is off. Then I cut the sides off the apple, eyeballing where I think the core is and continue to do this for the next 3 sides so all your left with is the core.
- How do I prevent my apples from sinking in my bread?
- Flour. I toss the apples with brown sugar, cinnamon and flour to prevent the apples from sinking to the bottom of the bread.
- How do I store this loaf?
- If it lasts long enough, store this loaf in an air tight container, at room temperature, for up to 3 days.
You could also drizzle this bread with caramel sauce for a decadent caramel apple bread.
