Apple Pie. It’s basically the quintessential fall dessert! It’s the perfect way to take advantage of fresh fall apples and seriously the best way to make your house smell amazing.
And…there are SO many ways to do it! From bars to cookies to cocktails, there’s an apple pie for everyone. And if you can find a way to eat it for breakfast? Even better.
This Apple Bread is quite possibly our favorite bread ever. Not just because it means you can have apple pie for breakfast…(although that’s a definite bonus)….but because it’s literally oozing with deliciousness. Between the fresh chopped apples and the brown sugar cinnamon streusel and the sweet cinnamon glaze, this bread really does have it all.
And best of all, it’s quick and easy to make! It’s an ideal grab & go option for busy mornings, and perfect for enjoying with a cup of coffee on a lazy weekend day. And….it would make an amazing addition to any holiday meal or dessert table.
I was inspired to make this Apple Pie Bread by one of my latest trips to Pick ‘n Save. There was just something about all the different varieties of apples – the colors, the sizes, the flavors – that I couldn’t resist.
I always love the fresh produce at Pick ‘n Save, and I love the fact that I know I’ll find everything I need.
For this bread I selected Gala and Granny Smith apples, along with their new Smidge & Spoon Sugar and some of my favorite Simple Truth Organic ingredients.
And the end result was nothing short of amazing….if I do say so myself.

HOW DO YOU MAKE APPLE PIE BREAD?
- In a large mixing bowl combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Set aside.
- In a medium mixing old combine egg, milk, and oil. Add egg mixture all at once to dry mixture. Stir just until moistened.
- Add chopped, peeled apples (I used Gala and Granny Smith) and cinnamon.
- Spoon 1/2 of batter into a greased 9×5 inch loaf pan.
- Prepare streusel by combining flour, brown sugar, butter, and cinnamon. Use a fork to blend until mixture resembles large crumbs.
- Sprinkle half of streusel over the first 1/2 of batter; add remaining batter and sprinkle remaining streusel over the top.
- Bake at 350° for 60-75 minutes, until bread is golden brown and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack; remove loaf from pan and cool completely.
- Prepare cinnamon glaze drizzle over cooled bread.
WHAT KIND OF APPLES DO YOU USE FOR APPLE BREAD?
I used a combination of Gala and Granny Smith apples, but you can use any of your favorites. In general, I like to combine a sweet variety with a tart variety for a more well-rounded flavor.
HOW DO YOU STORE LEFTOVERS?
Leftovers should be stored at room temperature. I typically wrap mine in foil or store it on a covered plate, but you can also store it in a large ziploc bag or other airtight container.

Hello, i can’t wait to try your Apple pie bread. Thank you for sharing your recipe.
It calls for granulated sugar in the bread ingredients and then sugar in the streusel ingredients. Upon reading the entire post it says brown sugar streusel topping.
Is Smidge and Spoon white sugar or brown sugar. I cannot get that brand here in
Canada ????????. Just wondering have you tried to swirl in the streusel with a knife
Before baking. Thank you
Debbie Devereaux says
Well it should have specified since I used sugar on both. I usually look at ingredients to see if I would like to make it or not, I really dont read the whole thing from beginning to stat and I bet there are alot more out there that did the same thing. I kept thinking something was wrong with this that it was white sugar. But I would have never thought they would put it up without proof reading it first. Hoping they change this so no one else make the same mistake
