Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cups Brown sugar
- 1.5 tablespoons Cinnamon
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Milk (for glaze)
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract (for glaze)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x9-inch baking dish lightly with butter or non-stick spray.
In the baking dish, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt to combine the dry ingredients.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the milk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract. Use a fork or whisk to combine everything until a smooth batter forms, ensuring no lumps remain.
In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon, stirring them together to create a fragrant swirl mixture.
Drop spoonfuls of the cinnamon mixture on top of the batter in the dish. Use a butter knife or skewer to gently swirl the mixture into the batter, creating a marbled effect.
Bake the dish in the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
While the bake cools slightly, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth and pourable.
Drizzle the glaze evenly over the warm cinnamon swirl bake. Allow the glaze to set for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
Enjoy warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
