how to have "Appendix" in title while using quotchap

I am using the quotchap package in book document class. In the appendices, I need to have the "Appendix" term in the title before the alphabetical order of the appendix. For example, I need to have

Appendix A
Proof of Theorem 1

However, by using the following code, I will get something like this:

A
Proof of Theorem 1

Any idea on how to remedy the issue is appreciated.

\documentclass{book}
\usepackage{quotchap}

\begin{document}
\chapter{Hello world!}

\appendix

\chapter{Proof of Theorem~1}

\end{document}

Normally one would redefine \thechapter to add such a prefix, but the font your packages uses is so large, that the result won't fit on the page. Instead you could do something like this:

\documentclass{book}
\usepackage{quotchap}

\usepackage{xpatch}


\begin{document}
\chapter{Hello world!}

\appendix
\makeatletter
\patchcmd{\@makechapterhead}{\thechapter}{{\Huge Appendix }\thechapter}{}{}
\makeatother


\chapter{Proof of Theorem~1}

\end{document}
