Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 large Egg
- 1 cup Milk
- 0.33 cup Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to combine evenly.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the bread tender.
In a small bowl, mix the ground cinnamon and brown sugar together to make the cinnamon swirl.
Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
Sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the batter layer.
Add the remaining batter on top and smooth it out with a spatula.
Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture over the top.
Using a butter knife, gently swirl the cinnamon-sugar layers into the batter by making figure-eight motions.
Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the top of the loaf.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve as is or with a pat of butter for extra indulgence.
