In a large bowl, add pumpkin puree, sugar, melted butter, and eggs.

Mix everything until combined, then add flour, salt, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and baking soda.

Mix until just combined, ensuring no dry ingredients are on the sides or bottom of the bowl.

Fold in finely chopped apples with a spatula.

Prepare a greased and parchment-lined 9x5 inch loaf pan and preheat the oven to 350°F.

Pour the batter into the loaf pan and spread it evenly.

In a small bowl, mix cinnamon and brown sugar for a topping.

Sprinkle the brown sugar topping over the batter in the loaf pan.

Bake in the oven for about 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Allow the loaf to cool completely in the pan before slicing.

Make a simple icing by mixing powdered sugar and milk until smooth, then drizzle it over the loaf.
