Chef's Notes




Sour cream: Helps keeps this bread moist. If you need a substitute, I’d recommend Greek yogurt.
Apples: I prefer using granny smith (green) apples. They are tart and have the best flavor. If the apples are overripe, they will have more moisture when shredded, so I prefer apples that are still crisp and easier to shred. If your apples are small to medium size, you’ll need 4-5 of them.
Nuts: Feel free to add some chopped walnuts or pecans would be good to.
Make ahead and storage: Keep stored in an airtight container in a cool and dry place. This loaf will stay moist for a couple days, but it’s best when served within 2 days of preparing. To freeze this bread, cool the loaf completely and then double wrap it in plastic wrap.

I baked this bread last week and everyone at home loved it so I had to bake another one this week!
The texture is amazing, all the flavors go really well together and you really get the cinnamon and apple flavor. It is super yummy and you should definitely give it a try, I'm sure you'll love it as well.
If you are debating if you should keep the crumble or leave it out, please don't leave it out, it is super tasty and adds a lot.
