This Cinnamon Swirl Loaf has a soft vanilla cake base with a cinnamon sugar swirl throughout the centre. SO good.
This Cinnamon Swirl Loaf is one of those breads that is such a treat. It’s rich, moist and cinnamon-y. It’s the kind of loaf that you will want to make over and over again because you can’t resist it’s deliciousness. I mean just look at that crunch sugar crust… and the tender vanilla cake. Oh my.
This bread is so delicious even it is smiling!
And when you are baking this bread in your oven, your house is going to smell ah-mazing. And I’m willing to bet that when it’s done, this loaf won’t last more than a day or two in your home. It’s irresistible. I love to make this for lazy Sunday mornings or coffee dates with friends. I hope you try it. Enjoy!
