Easy Cinnamon Roll Bread

By

No yeast in this recipe, so prep time is quick. You don't even need a mixer! It makes its own unique swirl as it bakes.

Ingredients

  • BREAD INGREDIENTS:
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 egg – room temperature
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup plain greek yogurt, or sour cream
  • SWIRL INGREDIENTS:
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled slightly
  • GLAZE INGREDIENTS:
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 - 3 teaspoons cream or milk (as needed for consistency)

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter or spray a glass loaf pan.

In a small bowl combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, vanilla, and yogurt or sour cream.
Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture, stirring just to combine using a spoon or wooden spoon. Pour into prepared loaf pan.
In a small bowl, stir the Swirl ingredients together. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto the top of the bread, then use a knife to swirl it a few times into the batter.

Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the center tests done with a toothpick. Remove from the oven and cool for 15 minutes in the pan on a wire rack. Remove bread from the pan and cool completely on the rack.

Meanwhile, make the Glaze by whisking the ingredients together in a small bowl until smooth, adding a dab of milk at a time until a good drizzling consistency is reached. When the bread is completely cool, drizzle the glaze over the top.
