I plan to try this one - it looks simply delicious and all the ingredients are pretty straight forward… Cinnamon Su gar Bread Cinnamon Sugar Bread is like eating a cinnamon & sugar cake donut but better. Easy & delicious this bread is ready to devour in an hour. Ingredients • 1 tablespoon butter • 1 1/3 cups sugar • 4 teaspoons cinnamon • 2 cups flour • 1 tablespoon baking powder • 3/4 teaspoon salt • 1 egg • 1 cup milk • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract • 1/3 cup canola oil Instructions

Preheat oven to 180 degrees. Butter a loaf pan with 1 tbsp butter and set aside. In a small bowl, mix 1/3 cup sugar and 3 teaspoons cinnamon, stir together and set aside.

In a medium mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, the remaining 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and remaining 1 cup of sugar. Sift together to combine. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together egg, milk, oil and vanilla extract. Stir by hand into flour mixture until combined.

Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle with half of the cinnamon and sugar mixture.

Add the remaining batter, and using a butter knife, swirl batter. Then top with the remaining cinnamon and sugar mixture.

Place in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean.

Cool the loaf pan on a cooling rack for 10 minutes. Move the loaf from the pan onto a large plate. The loose cinnamon and sugar will come off onto the plate. Carefully press all the sides of the bread onto the cinnamon and sugar that comes off onto the plate. Slice and serve as a snack or a decadent breakfast! Source: www.dashofsanity.com.
