Variations

Step by step instructions
- Step 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 5×9 loaf pan with cooking spray.
Step 2. Combine the butter, sugar and brown sugar in a large bowl. You can use a hand held mixer or stand mixer.
Step 3. Next, add the eggs, milk, sour cream and vanilla to the bowl. Combine the wet ingredients until smooth.
Step 4. Add the flour mixture to the bowl. Stir in the dry ingredients by hand until just combined. Do not overmix.
Step 5. Get out a separate small bowl. Combine the cinnamon sugar swirl ingredients together with a fork.
Step 6. Spoon batter into the loaf pan. Then sprinkle a portion of the cinnamon swirl mixture on top of the batter.
Step 7. Continue this process until all of the batter and swirl mixture have been added.
Step 8. Bake the bread for 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. The cinnamon sugar topping will crack as it bakes but that is normal!
Step 9. Allow to cool and then slice. Enjoy! The cinnamon sugar crust is amazing!

Pro Tips

- Fresh baking powder. Make sure the baking powder is not expired or it will not cook properly.
- Don’t overmix the batter. Stir everything until just combined.
