Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x4x3 inch loaf pan.
  2. Toss the chopped apples with cinnamon and sugar, allowing to sit for 10 minutes.
  3. Beat the softened butter and sugar for 3 minutes until fluffy.
  4. Add eggs one at a time, beating well, then stir in vanilla extract.
  5. Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to wet ingredients alternating with buttermilk, mixing until just combined.
  6. Layer half of the batter, then half of the apple mixture in the loaf pan. Repeat with remaining batter and apples.
  7. Mix brown sugar and cinnamon for the streusel topping, then sprinkle over the apples.
  8. Bake for 60 to 70 minutes, checking at 60 minutes for doneness with a toothpick.
  9. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack and glaze if desired.
