Thank you for posting this recipe. I sent it to my daughter who loves to bake. It sounds simple enough for me to try, too. :)

Wow, thank-you for sharing the Cinnamon Swirl Bread recipe! Looks easy enough for me to make-lol. If I want Cinnamon Bread, our local bakery makes the best Cinnamon Bread. I have taken it into my work that is out of town (retired) and taken orders for the holidays from co-workers. Now I volunteer (again out of town-but closer) and will take the bakery's Cinnamon Bread into there and it doesn't last very long. I will try this recipe. Nothing makes a home smell as good as something baking in the oven.

Wow this sounds really delicious - plus it doesn't sound too hard to make. Thank you!

I made this last night & it was absolutely delicious. So much better than store/bakery bought cinnamon swirl bread. I added the vanilla & DH & I just love it. Thanks for sharing this with us. It would make such easy Christmas gifts. You could make them in those mini aluminum pans & everyone would love them.

osewme your inbox is full, won't accept messages. Here is my answer to your question.

I put all the cinnamon mix in the middle, I didn't put any on the top. I draw a knife through back and forth horizontal just one time. The crust baked with no crumble. I made two more loaves and added raisins and then put a white glaze icing on the top. DH took those to deer camp. I used Saigon Cinnamon. It smells the best of all the cinnamon.

Sorry about the full inbox...I've cleaned it up now to give more room for messages. Thanks for the info on the top of the bread. I think I will put most of the cinnamon/sugar filling in the center from now on & only a bit on the top in the future. I do like the crunchy top. This is a keeper recipe!

It's out of the oven! Good thing my husband isn't home right now so it can cool without being cut.[ATTACH=CONFIG]582595[/ATTACH]

Tartan, that is a gorgeous loaf of bread. Oh my, this is so tempting to make. I'll have to make it after I weigh in at TOPS on Thursday. Thursdays are my cheat day; I figure I have 6 more days to work off the calories...LOL

Tartan, your loaf looks great! You are going to love it.

That sounds amazing, thanks for sharing the recipe.
