The combination of fresh apples and creamy sour cream adds a delightful tang and subtle sweetness, while the rich buttery base ensures every bite is a treat. This recipe is straightforward and simple to follow, making it an ideal choice whether you're a seasoned baker or a beginner.

Ingredients:

1 cup sugar
200g
1/2 cup butter
110g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4g
3 eggs
150g
1/3 cup sour cream
72g
2 apples
320g
2.50 cups all-purpose white wheat flour
310g
1 tsp baking powder
5g
2 cup powdered sugar
320g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour a loaf pan (9x5 inches) or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
2. Prepare the Dry Ingredients:
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder. Set aside.
3. Cream the Butter and Sugar:
In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar together using an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
4. Add the Wet Ingredients:
Beat in the vanilla extract. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the sour cream until smooth and well combined.
5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure a tender cake.
6. Fold in the Apples:
Gently fold the diced apples into the batter until evenly distributed.
7. Bake the Cake:
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Cool the Cake:
Once baked, allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, remove the loaf from the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Prepare the Topping:
While the cake is cooling, you can prepare an optional powdered sugar topping. Simply sift the powdered sugar over the cooled loaf for a sweet finish.
10. Serve:
Slice and serve the apple sour cream loaf cake. Enjoy!

Tips:

- Make sure your butter is at room temperature before you start, as this will ensure it creams properly with the sugar.

- Use crisp, tart apples like Granny Smith for the best flavor contrast with the sweet batter.

- Don't overmix the batter once you add the flour to avoid a dense loaf – mix just until combined.

- Allow the cake to cool completely before cutting to ensure clean slices and to let the flavors fully develop.

With its tender crumb and inviting aroma, the Apple Sour Cream Loaf Cake is sure to become a favorite in your baking repertoire. Serve it for breakfast, dessert, or an afternoon tea treat, and watch it disappear quickly. Enjoy each bite of this homey, comforting cake that brings a touch of sweetness and warmth to any day.
