Apple Spice Swirl Loaf
Similar to the flavors of a cinnamon roll but with an apple-y Fall twist and baked up in a large loaf pan. That swirl of apples, along with the light glaze up on top make for a little bite of Fall flavors in every slice. I’ve used Maizly Corn Milk here and if you need to make this gluten free, you can use the Primal Palate Gluten Free All Purpose Flour 1:1, easy peasy. Don’t forget the Primal Palate Apple Pie Spice, for a subtle kiss of apple yum! I use the BARE SNACKS dried apple chips in this recipe, they're organic and are quite tasty!

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- Preheat your oven to 350°-prepare a 9”x5” loaf pan, by lining with parchment paper, set aside.
- Make sweet roll dough by adding warmed milk, 1 tablespoon of the sugar and yeast to a measuring cup, stir well and allow to bloom.
- While the yeast blooms, add remaining sugar, butter, salt, eggs and mashed potatoes to the base of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, mix to combine. Or add to a large mixing bowl and use a hand mixer.
- Once yeast has bloomed, add that along with 1 cup of the flour to the mixture and mix to combine well. Next, fit the stand mixer with the dough hook and add the remaining flour about ⅓ cup at a time while the mixer runs, until the dough ball comes together. Depending on the size of your eggs, you may need an additional 2-3 tablespoons of flour to bring the dough together. You should have a nice soft and pliable dough that you can touch with your finger and not be sticky. For ease of rolling the dough out.
- Remove dough from the bowl and roll out into an approximate 10”x7” rectangle. Spread the butter evenly over the top. Sprinkle the brown sugar over the butter, using your hands to evenly distribute.
- Sprinkle the crushed apples evenly over the brown sugar, followed by the apple pie spice.
- Starting on one of the short sides, roll up into a log, pinching the other short edge to the log as you get to the other side.
- Place the “seam side” down–then with a sharp knife, carefully cut the log in half, lengthwise, from one end to the other. Pinch the top of each of the halves together slightly, then twist one side over the other working your way to the other ends of the halves. Tuck/pinch the ends together, then carefully lift and place loaf in the prepared loaf pan. Cover and allow to rise for 20-25 minutes.
- While the loaf rests, preheat your oven to 350°–remove plastic and bake for 55-65 minutes or until the top is golden brown and internal temperature is 190°.
- Remove from the oven and allow to rest in the pan for 5-7 minutes, then using the parchment paper, lift the loaf out of the pan onto a cooling rack and allow to cool.
- When ready to glaze, add all ingredients into a small bowl and stir to combine, then spread evenly over the top of the loaf. If you’re adding the crushed apple garnish, sprinkle that evenly over the glaze before it sets up.
- Slice and serve! Best enjoyed the day you make it, but can be stored at room temperature for 3-4 days.
Notes
TO FREEZE: If you want to freeze this, pre-slice and lay slices evenly on a parchment lined cooling rack and freeze them individually. Once frozen, put slices in a freezer safe zipper bag and place back in the freezer. To enjoy, remove as many slices as you need and allow to come to room temperature or warm in the microwave or toaster oven.
