Time 1h10m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

Unsalted butter, for greasing the pan
2 cups/255 grams all-purpose flour, plus more for the pan
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
Pinch of ground cloves
1/2 cup/120 milliliters vegetable oil
1/2 cup/120 milliliters unsweetened applesauce
1/2 cup/100 grams granulated sugar
1/2 cup/110 grams packed dark brown sugar
3 large eggs
1 large Granny Smith apple, unpeeled and shredded (about 1 cup)
1 cup/240 milliliters apple cider
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup/60 grams confectioners' sugar
Pinch of kosher salt

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter and flour an 8 1/2-inch-by-4 1/2-inch loaf pan. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg and cloves. In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, applesauce, sugars, eggs and apple.
  • Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Transfer to the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes.
  • Transfer to a rack to cool slightly, then remove the cake from the pan and let it cool completely.
  • When the cake has cooled, prepare the glaze: Bring the apple cider to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Continue to cook the cider until it has reduced to 1/3 cup, about 10 minutes. Add the butter, confectioners' sugar and salt. Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer and continue to cook the mixture, whisking often, until it has become syrupy and thickened slightly, about 4 minutes. Set aside to cool until it thickens slightly.
  • Drizzle the glaze over the cake, and serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, crisp apples. This will give your bread the best flavor and texture.
  • Peel and core the apples before grating them. This will help to prevent the bread from becoming too dense.
  • Grate the apples using the large holes of a box grater. This will create small, even pieces that will distribute evenly throughout the bread.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense bread.
  • Bake the bread in a greased and floured loaf pan. This will help to prevent the bread from sticking to the pan.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the bread to set.
