Instructions:
- Preheat oven: Set oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
- Make filling: In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg (if using). Mix well.
- Make cake batter: In a large bowl, whisk together sugar, melted butter, sour cream, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Combine wet and dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Overmixing will make the bread tough.
- Prepare apples: Peel, core, and chop the apple into 1/2-inch cubes.
- Fold in apples: Add all but a handful of the chopped apples to the batter and gently fold to combine.
- Layer batter: Pour half the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly.
- Add first layer of filling: Sprinkle half of the cinnamon sugar mixture over the batter.
- Swirl: Use a butter knife to cut swirls through the batter.
- Add remaining batter: Pour the remaining batter over the first layer and spread evenly.
- Add remaining apples and filling: Top with the reserved apples and sprinkle with the remaining cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Swirl again: Use the butter knife to cut swirls through the batter again.
- Bake: Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool: Let the bread cool in the pan for 10-20 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Make glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together sifted icing sugar and hot water until you reach the desired consistency.
- Glaze: Drizzle the glaze over the cooled bread.
- Serve: Let the glaze set for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
