Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup buttermilk
2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and diced
Pinch of nutmeg
1/4 cup sugar (for swirl mixture)
1 tablespoon cinnamon (for swirl mixture)
Directions
Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with buttermilk. Mix until just combined.
Gently fold in the diced apples, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
In a small bowl, mix together 1/4 cup sugar and 1 tablespoon cinnamon to create the swirl mixture.
Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan, sprinkle half of the swirl mixture, then repeat with the remaining batter and swirl mixture.
Use a knife to swirl the cinnamon mixture through the batter, creating a marbled effect.
Bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the bread to cool before slicing and serving.
