Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.

- Gently combine the wet and dry mixtures until just combined.
- Fold in the chopped apples.
- Scoop the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
- Sprinkle the crumb topping over the batter and lightly press it in.
- Bake for 45–55 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Let the loaf cool completely in the pan.
- Whisk together the glaze ingredients—1 cup powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon milk, and 1 tablespoon maple syrup, then drizzle over the cooled loaf.
Notes
For a lighter version, consider replacing half the sugar with applesauce or using plant-based milk and coconut oil as substitutes.
