Stir the dry ingredients into the wet until just combined.
6
Gently stir in the apple chunks.
7
Stir together chopped pecans, coconut sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl to make the topping.
8
Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and top with crumb topping.

Place in preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a cake tester or toothpick come out clean.

Let loaf cool on a wire rack before attempting to remove the loaf from the pan.

Once cool, make glaze by stirring together powdered sugar and milk. Drizzle glaze over bread and serve.
