Here's what you need:
4 cups apples, Macintosh, peeled, cored and chopped
4 large eggs, beaten
1 cup canola oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons cinnamon, ground

3 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups granulated sugar
3/4 cups all-purpose flour, for topping
1/4 cup granulated sugar, for topping
2 teaspoons cinnamon, ground, for topping
1/2 cup butter, unsalted, at room temperature, for topping

 


Here's how to make it:

Preheat oven to 350. Lightly grease two standard bread loaf pans and set aside.

Peel, core and slice apples. Cut into one-inch chunks.

In a large bowl, beat eggs with a mixer until fluffy. Add the oil and beat until combined. Add the vanilla, baking soda, salt and ground cinnamon. Beat until thorough mixed. With the mixer on low speed, add the flour and sugar to blend. Turn the mixer to high and beat until mixture is smooth. Fold in the chopped apples.

Divide the mixture between the two pans with a spoon (the mixture will be very thick).

Make the topping by cutting the butter into the flour with a fork and adding the cinnamon and sugar and mix until crumbly. Sprinkle equal amounts on each loaf. Bake for I hour until firm to the touch. Remove and coolon a rack. When completely cool, remove from the pans and slice.
