Hey there, foodies! 🌟
Let me share my absolute favorite afternoon treat that’ll make you feel like you’re living that cozy farmhouse life, even if you’re stuck in a city apartment like I was last year! This Rustic Apple Cinnamon Crumble Bread is seriously to die for, and trust me, your kitchen will smell like heaven.
You know those moments when you just want something homey and comforting? This recipe is THAT moment in food form. I discovered it while visiting my grandmother’s farm last fall, and I’ve been obsessed ever since!
Ingredients:
– 2 cups fresh apples, diced (Honeycrisp is my go-to, but you do you!)
– 3 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 cup brown sugar (packed with love, obviously)
– 2 teaspoons cinnamon (or more, I won’t judge)
– 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
– 3 eggs
– 1 cup vegetable oil
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1/2 cup milk
For the crumble topping:
– 1/2 cup flour
– 1/4 cup butter, cold
– 1/4 cup brown sugar
– 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Ladies and gents, let’s get baking! 👩🍳
1. First things first, preheat that oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease your loaf pan like your life depends on it!
1. Mix your dry ingredients in one bowl (flour, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg). In another bowl, whisk those eggs like they owe you money, then add oil, vanilla, and milk.
1. Combine wet and dry ingredients (but don’t overmix – we’re not making rubber here!), then fold in those apple pieces gently.
Oh! Before we continue – if you’re loving this recipe so far, make sure to follow me on Newsbreak for daily doses of deliciousness! I share everything from comfort food to fancy-pants dishes that’ll impress your mother-in-law. 😉
1. For the crumble topping, cut that cold butter into the flour-sugar-cinnamon mixture until it looks like coarse crumbs. (I use my fingers because who has time to wash extra utensils?)
1. Pour the batter into your pan, sprinkle that gorgeous crumble on top, and pop it in the oven for about 55-60 minutes.
The waiting is the hardest part, trust me! When a toothpick comes out clean, it’s done. Let it cool for 10 minutes – I know it’s torture, but you’ve got this!
Y’all, this bread is perfect with a cup of coffee or tea, and it makes your house smell like those fancy candle shops (but better because you can actually eat it!).
