Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 cups Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Brown sugar, packed
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 Eggs, large
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
Pour in the melted butter, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract. Stir until the batter is smooth and everything is evenly combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the Cowboy Bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan on a cooling rack for 10–15 minutes before slicing.
Cut into squares or rectangles and serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
