Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.75 cups unsalted butter, softened
- 1.5 cups granulated sugar
- 3 units large eggs
- 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cups sour cream
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.75 cups granulated sugar (for cinnamon swirl)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour two 8x4-inch loaf pans.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar using a hand or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Mix in the sour cream on low speed until just combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low until a smooth batter forms.
In a small bowl, mix the ground cinnamon and the granulated sugar for the cinnamon swirl.
Pour half of the batter evenly into the prepared loaf pans. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture on top of the batter in each pan.
Add the remaining batter on top of the cinnamon layer, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture on top.
Using a knife, gently swirl the cinnamon-sugar through the batter in each loaf pan to create a marbled effect.
Bake the loaves in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the loaves cool in the pans for about 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Enjoy your sour cream cinnamon loaves with your favorite cup of coffee or tea!
