Cinnamon Swirl Quick Bread is here to spice up your life with a swirl of sweetness and warmth in every slice. This delightful treat is perfect for breakfast or an afternoon snack paired with your favorite coffee. Let’s dive into this quick and easy baking adventure and make this cinnamon-y delight!
Get your oven warmed up to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
Mix together 1/3 cup granulated sugar and 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon in a small bowl for that signature swirl of goodness.
In a larger bowl, combine 1/3 cup melted butter, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 egg, and 1 tablespoon vanilla extract until well-blended. Pour in 1 cup buttermilk and give it another good stir.
Combine 2 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon baking soda in another bowl. Gradually add to wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overdo it!
Pour half the batter into your prepped loaf pan. Sprinkle with half the cinnamon-sugar mix. Pour the remaining batter on top and sprinkle with the remaining cinnamon-sugar. Swirl with a knife to create a beautiful marbled effect.
Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Ensure that you measure your ingredients accurately for best results, particularly the flour which can vary in density.
Store any leftover bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for a week.
Feel free to add nuts or dried fruits to the batter for added texture and flavor.
This cinnamon swirl bread pairs perfectly with coffee, tea, or even a spread of cream cheese for extra richness.
