Cinnamon Bread

Hello!! Didn't want to make a liar out of myself so here I am! Back with the second recipe of the weekend. :) This is a scrumptious, cinnamon bread that you have just GOT to try!! Great for breakfast or really anytime you want a little sweet treat. It's also great because this doesn't require any yeast, rising or waiting. Just mix it up and then pop it in the oven. I made quite a few changes to this recipe so be sure to follow along!

CINNAMON BREAD

What you need for the cinnamon bread:

For the filling:
1/3 cup white sugar

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

For the bread:
2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup light brown sugar

1 egg, beaten

1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup half and half or heavy cream
1/3 cup vegetable oil

To make the cinnamon bread:

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease (I used Crisco) a 9x5 inch loaf pan.

2. In large bowl combine flour, baking powder, salt and 1 cup sugar. 

3. Add the egg, milk, cream, and oil to flour mixture and stir until just moistened.

 

4. Pour half of the batter into pan.

 

5. Combine your 2 teaspoons of cinnamon with the 1/3 cup of sugar and mix.

6. Top half of your batter with the cinnamon and sugar mix leaving just a little left. Pour the rest of your batter on top of the cinnamon middle and top with the remaining cinnamon and sugar.

7. Bake for 40-50 minutes in your preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool in pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a dish to finish cooling.

This creates a cinnamon-y crunchy top!

Once cool, wrap and store in foil.

ENJOY!!
