Cinnamon-Swirl Bread

I got this recipe from Better Homes and Gardens Hometown Cooking 10/99. Karen M. Heleski of Ubly, Michigan said this is a family recipe her mother passed down to her that she plans to teach her daughters. This is a delicious and simple quick bread.

• Ready In: 1 hr
• Serves: 16

Ingredients

• 1 1⁄3 cups granulated sugar
• 2  teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 2  cups all-purpose flour
• 1  tablespoon baking powder
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
• 1  beaten egg
• 1  cup milk
• 1⁄3 cup  cooking oil

Directions

1. Grease and flour a 9x5x3" loaf pan.
2. Mix 1/3 cup sugar and cinnamon and set aside.
3. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and remaining sugar.
4. Combine egg, milk and oil and add to flour mixture.
5. Stir just until moistened.
6. Pour half the batter into prepared pan.
7. Sprinkle with half the cinnamon mixture.
8. Repeat with remaining batter and cinnamon mixture.
9. Draw a knife through batter to marble.
10. Bake in 350 oven for 45 to 50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
11. Cool in pan for 10 minutes.
12. Remove from pan.
13. Cool. Wrap and store bread overnight before slicing (I must confess, that's never happened--the bread is gone the same day).
