“My mom’s grandmother use to make these. Then when she passed away no one had the recipe, but I’ve been hearing about them my whole life.”

This recipe delivers a delicious and easy-to-make sweet bread with a delightful cinnamon sugar coating.

Ingredients:

For the Bread:

Ingredient Quantity
All-Purpose Flour 2 cups
Granulated Sugar 1 cup
Baking Powder 1 teaspoon
Baking Soda 1 teaspoon
Salt ½ teaspoon
Ground Cinnamon 1 teaspoon
Unsalted Butter, melted ½ cup
Eggs 2 large
Whole Milk (or Buttermilk) 1 cup
Vanilla Extract 1 teaspoon

For the Cinnamon Sugar Topping:

Ingredient Quantity
Unsalted Butter, melted 2 tablespoons
Granulated Sugar ¼ cup
Ground Cinnamon 1 teaspoon

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together melted butter, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry: Slowly pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. Avoid overmixing.
  5. Pour into Pan: Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  6. Bake: Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If browning too quickly, loosely cover with foil for the last 10 minutes.
  7. Make Cinnamon Sugar Topping: Combine granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
  8. Apply Topping: Once the bread is out of the oven and still warm, brush the top with melted butter and generously sprinkle with cinnamon sugar mixture.
  9. Cool and Serve: Let the bread cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and enjoy!
