Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with milk. Mix until just combined.
  6. Fold in the diced apples gently.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
Crumble Topping
  1. To make the crumble topping, mix flour, brown sugar, cold diced butter, and cinnamon in a bowl until crumbly.
  2. Sprinkle the crumble over the batter in the loaf pan.
Baking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  2. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a cooling rack.
  3. Once cooled, drizzle caramel sauce over the top of the loaf cake before slicing and serving.
