Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9x5 loaf pan with parchment paper and nonstick spray.
- Cream together the softened butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
- Add eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before the next.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter-sugar mixture, alternating with apple cider.
- Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and tap gently to release air bubbles.
- Bake for 40-50 minutes, checking for doneness around 40 minutes.
- Allow to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
- Whisk together powdered sugar and apple cider for the glaze until smooth.
- Pour the glaze over the cooled cake and let it set before slicing.
