Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by peeling, coring, and finely dicing medium apples until you have about 1.5 cups. Set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sourdough discard, all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, fine sea salt, and ground cinnamon. Whisk to blend.
  3. Add the large egg, whole milk, melted unsalted butter, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture. Whisk until a cohesive batter forms, leaving it slightly lumpy.
  4. Gently fold in the diced apples into your batter until they are well coated.
  5. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan, pour in your batter, and bake for 25-30 minutes.
  6. Prepare the glaze by whisking together sifted powdered sugar, a splash of milk, and a dash of vanilla extract.
  7. Let the loaf cool before transferring it to a wire rack. Drizzle the warm glaze over the loaf.
