1/2 cup butter, melted
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 large eggs, room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup whole milk
2 cups chopped peeled apple
SWIRL:
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
ICING:
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon whole milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1Preheat oven to 350°. Grease a 9x5-in. loaf pan, line with parchment, letting ends extend over sides.
2In a large bowl, beat together sugar and butter at medium speed until well combined, 4 to 5 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, until fluffy and pale in color, 2-3 minutes. Beat in vanilla extract. In a small bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Alternate adding dry ingredients and milk to the butter/egg mixture, stirring just until batter is smooth. Fold in apples. Set aside.
3In a small bowl, combine brown sugar and cinnamon. Transfer half of the batter to the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle half of the brown sugar cinnamon mixture on top. Add the remaining batter; sprinkle remaining brown sugar cinnamon mixture on top. Use a knife to swirl the mixture around. Bake 45 to 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool on a wire rack.
4Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine confectioners' sugar, milk and vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle on top of bread.
