Very good recipe but my family likes really sweet cinnamon bread so instead of adding 3 teaspoons full of sugar and cinnamon, I added 3 tablespoons full. I also painted the top with meltd butter before it went into the oven and I sprinkled sugar and cinnamon on the top.

I thought this bread turned out pretty good. The filling turned out great and gave the bread just the right amount of sweetness. The bread was good, though when I cooked it the inside was not quite done so I had to cook it about five more minutes. I also made a glaze which really spiced it up. Thanks for the recipe I would make it again.
