Cinna Bread

Lady Morrgian's Note:

This is the end result of me deciding to combine about 5 recipes. It is a very interesting bread, very soft on the inside with a nice "crunchy" crust. I love it smothered in butter

• Total Time: 55 mins
• Prep Time: 10 mins
• Cook Time: 45 mins

Ingredients:

Yield: 1 loaf

• 2 cups plain flour
• 1 cup sugar (white)
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• 1 ½ teaspoons cinnamon (add to your own taste, I personally add closer to a full Table spoon)
• 1 teaspoon salt (optional)
• 1 cup milk
• ¼ cup vegetable oil
• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 tablespoon cinnamon

Add in suggestions

• 1 cup raisins (other dried fruit)
• 1 cup nuts , of choice

Directions:

1. Combine dry ingredients and set aside.
2. Mix oil, milk, eggs and vanilla.
3. Add wet mix to the dry mix.
4. Mix until JUST combined, if batter is lumpy that is FINE.
5. Cut up butter and toss with cinnamon.
6. Fold butter into batter.
7. If adding something in do at this point.
8. Pour into your baking vassal, (I use an old corny ware dish, a deep 9x9 should be fine).
9. Bake at 350 for 45 or until the tooth pick comes out clean.

This is VERY Yummy.. it is so good warm out of the oven.. it makes the whole kitchen smell great... very moist with a crispy crust. I am anxious to try it toasted with a little butter for breakfast and with a cup of coffee. Way to go Lady Morrgain!

OMGoodness! This is an awesome 'bread' recipe! I followed as written, adding about 1/2 c. chopped walnuts, to taste. I used a glass loaf pan, so reduced temperature by 25 degrees and baked for 18 minutes longer. I also froze my chopped butter, before coating with cinnamon, and dumped what didn't stick to butter. This is scrumptious. Light and crusty and tasty! I will share with others, as it is a simple recipe. Thanks for sharing, Lady Morrigan ~ Made for Fall PAC '09.

YUMMMM!!! I added a full tablespoon of cinnamon as suggested in the recipe, and used 1/2 cup of splenda in place of the sugar and this bread came out awesome! I didn't add any raisins or nuts, just left as is and this is some seriously good cinnamon bread! Made for PAC Fall 09.
