Cinnamon Swirl Bread. Easy!
 
I found this recipe posted here in 2011. I made it yesterday, in fact I made two loaves of it. All I can say is it's a hit with family and I will be giving homemade loaves as gifts too. The first loaf was eaten before it could get cool. The second loaf I saved until today and it slices much better. You have to try this. I added a teaspoon of vanilla to the batter because I love vanilla. If you want a great inexpensive thinking of you gift for the holidays this is it.


Cinnamon-Swirl Bread

1 1/3 c. granulated sugar
2 tsp ground cinnamon
2 c. all-purpose flour
1 Tbsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1 egg (beaten)
1 c. milk
1/3 c. vegetable oil

Preheat oven to 350º. Grease and flour a 9x5x3-inch loaf pan. Mix 1/3 c. sugar and cinnamon; set aside. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and remaining sugar. Combine egg, milk, and oil; add to flour mixture. Stir by hand just until moistened. Pour half the batter into prepared pan. Sprinkle with half the cinnamon mixture. Repeat with remaining batter and cinnamon mixture. Draw a knife through batter to marble.

Bake for 45 to 50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in pan for 10 minutes. Remove from pan. Cool. Wrap and store bread overnight before slicing.
It never lasts long enough to store over night at my house!

Need to try this, I love cinnamon bread, sounds yummy.

Tartan 10-20-2017 07:54 AM

I will give it a try this weekend, thanks!

I would say that if it was eaten before it could cool off, that is definitely a hit! I will have to try this.

Here's another that's supper easy. Buy loaf of cinnamon bread. 2 eggs,1 cup milk, cream cheese.Walnuts to sprinkle over bread. Maple syrup, to spread over top.1/2 cup or more to your liking. Lay slices of cinnamon bread in pan,take cream cheese around bread. Take egg and milk whip it up. Pour over bread and let it soak in. Pour syrup over top and bake 350 for 45min or until done. You can add as much cream cheese and nuts as you like. You can add pumpkin spice for a different flavor. I use entire loaf of bread.If your using sm loaf.

Wow! both of these recipes sound great. I can't believe that we are starting into the "add extra pounds" season.

I have lost over 50 pounds and these recipes are so tempting. I recently fell off the dieting band wagon and rolled a couple of miles. But I have to say, donuts just don't taste the same as they used to, however it was fun tasting them. I think that you have to splurge sometimes and these recipes might just be the ones that, well...

” Rolled a couple of miles “. That’s cute !

This sounds fantastic. I love cinnamon swirl bread but never buy it for myself. I will have to try this recipe. Thanks!

copycat 10-21-2017 02:28 AM

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.

Beachbaby12 10-21-2017 05:34 AM

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

osewme 10-21-2017 06:34 AM

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.

fruitloop 10-21-2017 08:16 AM

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.

osewme 10-21-2017 08:27 AM

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]

mac 10-21-2017 11:16 AM

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

osewme 10-21-2017 11:41 AM

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

DottyD 10-21-2017 12:41 PM

That sounds amazing, thanks for sharing the recipe.

jenbro 10-22-2017 07:55 AM

Thanks for the recipe! Worked perfectly the first time. I baked it yesterday evening and it was finished today.

lovingmama 10-23-2017 08:50 AM

Thanks for sharing!

So yummy good...I was up this morning @ 4:30...mixed this easy recipe and had hot bread by the time hubby woke. So quick and delicious hot w/butter! Thx for postings this. Edited to add that I also added vanilla!

NoraB 10-24-2017 09:12 AM

thanks for the recipe. I'm going to try it today (have the ingredients on my grocery list). I live in high altitude.....since it doesn't take yeast, I'm assuming I don't have to adjust for high altitude? Also, mermaid, how much vanilla did you add?

It's been way too long since my house has smelled delicious with baking something......so I'm eager to do this today! Wish me luck!!!!!

NoraB 10-27-2017 08:41 AM

fruitloop, thanks for the recipe. That was so easy to make and delicious! It's a keeper! I ended up making it in 2 small loaf pans. The first one was eaten up that evening. We are not eating off the 2nd one and I think it is even better the second day! Delicious and since there's no yeast, don't have to worry about the dough rising.

I added a splash of vanilla to the batter like mermaid suggested. I accidentally splashed some on me and all day I smelled so delicious! Thinking of putting just a dab of vanilla behind my ears each day.......will see what happens!

Onebyone 10-30-2017 07:02 AM

I've made this before when it was posted here in 2011. We love it. I make loaves of it for the holidays to give. Such a simple gift and it is much appreciated. I buy these to bake the bread in to give:

I bake it for us in a cast iron skillet to get a round coffee cake loaf. I add a white glaze icing on top. We like it better then yeast cinnamon rolls.

elnan 10-30-2017 07:50 AM

One by One, thank you for posting your information about using this recipe, and for the link to KA for the disposable pans.

sewvicki 10-31-2017 11:15 AM

Sounds wonderful! Thanks for sharing the recipe.

DottyD 10-31-2017 03:56 PM

Made this last night and took it round to my daughters today -- all the grandkids loved it and they want me to make them another one for Christmas !!! It was delicious.
I don't usually use "CUP " measurements here in the UK - has anyone translated the ingredients into grams or ounces please ? Thank you.

nativetexan 11-01-2017 09:38 AM

I used to make one when in High School. we filled dough and rolled it out into a circle. then baked. wonderful. I haven't made that in eons!

emt2004 11-04-2017 04:48 PM

Wonder if you can put Apple's in batter? Has anyone tried adding different things to batter? Thank you for your help, Michele love this recipe.

Onebyone 11-05-2017 09:27 AM

I use the white cookie icing in a tube and decorated the loaf with lines of icing going across it. The icing dried so the bread won't stick to the bread wrapper when gifting. I don't put the cinnamon mix on top, I use all of it in the middle. If giving for a gift it's best to use the disposable baking pans as the bread will get very moist on the outside if wrapped up in plastic or foil wrap.

I buy clear bread loaf wrappers in bulk at Amazon. Inexpensive and are so handy for many baked goods. Used with the pretty paper baking pans it makes an impressive bakery gift for 1/4 of the cost. If you have a restaurant store close to you check there for different size paper pans.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]583635[/ATTACH]It came out pretty nice even using Silk Soy milk in the recipe for those that have a regular milk allergy.

Onebyone 12-20-2017 11:41 AM

I had some leftover egg nog so I used that instead of milk. I used less of the cinnamon mixture and it was delicious.

One cup = 8 oz. I am not good with metric at all so I can't help with grams.

SusieQOH 12-20-2017 01:41 PM

That sounds so yummy and easy! Thank you. My kids will be here on Friday and it looks great for breakfast.
Tartan, my mouth is watering :)

I have a loaf with thinly sliced apples in the oven right now, will let you know how it comes out. Smells heavenly baking!

Don't know how I'm going to wait until tomorrow to taste-test it. ;)

tranum 12-30-2017 02:12 PM

I was worried about a full tablespoon of baking powder but it turned out great and my guys put their stamp of approval on it so I’ll make it again ! Thank you
