Ingredients for cinnamon bread
LEAVENING & FLOUR This sweet-tasting, aromatic bread begins with basic ingredients for white bread dough. Additionally, baking soda and baking powder cause the dough to rise while it bakes, eliminating the need for lengthy rising times!
SUGAR The intensely fragrant aroma and sweet and savory flavor of this bread are created by substituting some of the white sugar for brown sugar and by adding a generous amount of cinnamon.
DAIRY Butter, eggs, and buttermilk mixed with flour produce a loaf with a deliciously tangy and creamy texture that pairs perfectly with cinnamon flavor.
Variations
- Raisins, as well as other interesting add-ins like diced apples, bananas, and even walnuts, and pecans, go well with cinnamon bread.
- Using flour, brown sugar, and butter along with some chopped walnuts or oats, try making a streusel or crumble topping!
Making Cinnamon Bread
Making this bread is incredibly simple.
- In a bowl, combine flour and the remaining dry ingredients (per the recipe below).
- Cream butter and sugar in a mixer. Add the milk, vanilla, and eggs.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and whisk just enough to combine.
- Bake until a wooden pick inserted into the center of the treat comes out clean.
Quick Bread Advice & Techniques
- Always softly scoop flour into a measuring cup, level it with a butter knife, then repeat with the remaining flour. Don’t fill the measuring cup too full. Check out this guide on measuring flour.
- Verify that all of the components are at room temperature.
- Just incorporate the dry ingredients; overmixing will result in dry, tough quick bread.
- Check your bread at least 10 minutes early to make sure it doesn’t overcook because ovens and baking pans might vary.
- After about five minutes, remove the bread from the pan and lay it on a cooling rack to finish cooling.
- Once the loaf is cooked, it is simple to remove it from the pan by lining it with parchment paper.
