🍞 Cinnamon Bread

A soft, moist cinnamon loaf with a delicious cinnamon-sugar crust.

Ingredients

Bread

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• ¾ cup granulated sugar
• 2 tsp baking powder
• ½ tsp salt
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• 2 large eggs
• ¾ cup milk
• ½ cup melted butter
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Cinnamon topping

• 2 tbsp granulated sugar
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1 tbsp melted butter

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
2. In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
3. In another bowl, whisk eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Don’t overmix.
5. Pour the batter into the loaf pan.
6. Mix the topping sugar and cinnamon, then sprinkle evenly over the batter. Drizzle with melted butter.
7. Bake for 45–55 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
8. Cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then transfer to a rack and let cool before slicing.

⭐ Optional Cinnamon Swirl

Mix ¼ cup brown sugar + 1½ tsp cinnamon + 1 tbsp melted butter. Spread half the batter in the pan, add the cinnamon mixture, then cover with the remaining batter. Swirl gently with a knife before baking.

Tip: For a keto/low-carb version, replace the flour with a suitable almond-flour blend and use a granulated keto sweetener.
