Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup vanilla protein powder
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 0.75 cup brown sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan with non-stick spray or line with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, vanilla protein powder, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together to ensure even distribution of ingredients.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix; some lumps are okay.
In a small bowl, prepare the cinnamon swirl by mixing the ground cinnamon with the brown sugar.
Pour half of the bread batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly with a spatula.
Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the batter in the pan.
Pour the remaining batter over the cinnamon sugar layer. Use a butter knife or a skewer to swirl the batter, creating a marbled effect by gently dragging it through the batter in a figure-eight pattern.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and enjoy your delicious high-protein cinnamon swirl bread!
