Ingredients
  

Bread
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 medium apples diced
Streusel
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 4 Tbsp cold butter cubed

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
  2. Make the streusel: in a small bowl, mix the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Cut in the cold butter with a pastry cutter or your fingers until crumbly. Refrigerate while you make the batter.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, sour cream, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold in the diced apples.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle the streusel evenly over the top.
  7. Bake for 55-65 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then remove to a wire rack.
