This is the best Amish cinnamon bread recipe we know. It has a generous swirl of cinnamon bread through the middle and over the top, making it a decadent but delicious breakfast treat.
In a small bowl, mix together the cinnamon and the sugar. Set aside.
For the Loaf:
Grease and line a 9 x 5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper. Preheat oven to 350 F.
In a large bowl using a hand mixer, or in the bowl of a stand mixer using a paddle attachment, cream together the sugar and butter until light and fluffy. Add the egg and buttermilk and beat until well incorporated.
Siff the flour and the baking soda into the wet ingredients and stir to combine.
Spoon half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle half of the cinnamon sugar over the batter.
Cover with the remaining batter and sprinkle the rest of the cinnamon sugar on top of the batter.
Bake in preheated oven for 40 to 50 minutes until a cake tester inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
Remove from oven and let the bread cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to fully cool.
Try very hard not to eat the whole loaf in one sitting.
