Ingredients You’ll Need:

For the Bread:

  • 2 cups All-purpose Flour
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1 1/2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 cup Buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup Vegetable Oil
  • 2 Large Eggs
  • 2 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract

For the Cinnamon Swirl:

  • 2 tbsp Granulated Sugar
  • 1 tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • 2 tsp Unsalted Butter, Melted

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Preheat and Prepare:

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and grease/flour a loaf pan.

2. Mix the Batter:

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract.
  • Use an electric mixer to beat the ingredients for about 3 minutes until well combined and smooth.

3. Pour and Prepare the Swirl:

  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, using an offset spatula to smooth the top.
  • In a small bowl, mix together sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter to create the cinnamon swirl.
  • Sprinkle the cinnamon swirl mixture evenly over the top of the batter.

4. Swirl and Bake:

  • Use a knife to lightly swirl the cinnamon mixture into the batter for a marbled effect.
  • Bake the cinnamon bread at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

5. Cool and Serve:

  • Once baked, remove the cinnamon bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the loaf pan for a few minutes.
  • Transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.

FAQs:

1. Can I use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour?

  • Yes, you can substitute whole wheat flour for all-purpose flour, but note that it may yield a slightly denser texture.

2. Can I omit the cinnamon swirl topping?

  • While the cinnamon swirl adds a delicious layer of flavor, you can omit it if desired for a simpler bread.

3. Can I freeze leftover cinnamon bread?

  • Yes, you can freeze sliced cinnamon bread in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Thaw slices as needed and reheat in a toaster or microwave.

4. Can I add nuts or raisins to the batter?

  • Absolutely! Feel free to add chopped nuts or raisins to the batter for extra texture and flavor.

5. How should I store leftover cinnamon bread?

  • Store leftover cinnamon bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
