Cinnamon Swirl Bread

This Cinnamon Bread is so easy to make from scratch and will make your whole house smell amazing! It bakes up into a melt-in-your-mouth tender quick bread with a generous cinnamon swirl inside and a thin, crunchy cinnamon-sugar crust on top. This simple cinnamon bread tastes delicious with a big cup of coffee on a cold morning for breakfast but also makes a great afternoon snack.

Making a quick bread from scratch is so easy and quick and much simpler than making a yeasted bread. It takes only a few minutes to throw together and can be made in under an hour from start to finish. It has a tender, soft texture and keeps moist and fresh for days! You can make it a day or two in advance because this bread tastes even better on the next day. The cinnamon flavour tends to get more intense over time!

This easy quick bread recipe is made with simple ingredients that you probably have on hand but tastes so delicious. It is a holiday favourite in our family and always gone in seconds!

Tips on how to make the BEST Homemade Cinnamon Bread

• Measure the flour correctly for the best result. Spoon it into a measuring cup and level it with the back of a knife!
• If your cinnamon is not as potent and your a cinnamon fan you can increase the amount to 3 tsp for a more intense flavour
• To get a cinnamon swirl you have to draw a knife through the batter but don’t mix it too much or you won’t get a distinguished swirl
• Every oven is different so make sure to check the bread for doneness with a skewer
• Wrap in plastic wrap and let sit overnight before slicing for the best flavour
• This bread keeps fresh for up to 5 days stored tightly wrapped in plastic wrap at room temperature
• Don’t store it in the fridge! It will dry out if it is stored in a cold environment
• You can freeze this Cinnamon Bread for up to 3 months tightly wrapped in plastic wrap. Defrost on the counter overnight
