Preheat the oven to 350 F. Grease and line a loaf pan with parchment paper
Chop apples and nuts into bite-size pieces and set aside
Mix dry ingredients together (2 cups flour, ½ tsp salt, and 1 tsp baking powder) and set aside
In a large mixing bowl, using a handheld or a stand mixer, cream together 1 stick of room-temperature butter with 1 cup of granulated sugar.
The mixture should look pale and fluffy. Scrape the bowl with a spatula to make sure everything is incorporated.
Beat in the room temperature eggs, ½ cup of milk, and 1 tsp of vanilla extract to the creamed mixture until everything is well combined
Fold in the dry ingredients carefully using a spatula. Do not overmix! Over-mixing can create a dense loaf
Mix in the chopped apples and nuts, until everything is evenly incorporated
Transfer the batter to your prepared loaf pan
Sprinkle the Dutch Crumble evenly on top.
Bake in the oven at 350 F for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean
Let it cool before adding your glaze
