🧂 Ingredients

• 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons apple pie spice*
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2/3 cup canola oil
• 2 apples

  like Gala
• 1 tablespoon maple syrup
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 1/2 tablespoons butter
• 1 1/2 teaspoons milk

Instructions

• 1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Generously coat a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with
  cooking spray.
• 2 In a medium bowl, whisk flour, apple pie spice, baking powder, salt, and baking
  soda. Set aside.
• 3 With an electric mixer or stand mixer beat together the eggs, granulated sugar
  and brown sugar until light and fluffy; about 1 minute. Add yogurt and vanilla;
  beat to combine. Gradually add the oil and continue beating until well combined.
  Add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
• 4 Grate one apple onto a paper towel to remove excess moisture. Fold the grated
  apple into the batter and then transfer into the prepared pan. Halve and thinly
  slice the remaining apple. Arrange the slices in pretty patterns on top of the
  batter.
• 5 Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean; about 1 hour to 1
  hour 10 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 15 minutes, and then remove to a wire
  rack to cool completely; about 1 hour.
• 6 When ready to serve, heat brown sugar, maple syrup, and butter in a small
  saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the sugar is dissolved. Add the milk, a
  pinch of salt, and bring to a simmer. Immediately remove from heat and let cool,
  stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 2 minutes. Drizzle the glaze over
  the cake.
