Amish Cinnamon Bread Recipe
In this blog, I will share with you an Amish cinnamon bread recipe that is extremely delicious.
Ingredients
For The Batter:
- 1 C butter, softened
- 2 C sugar
- 2 eggs

- 4 C flour
- 2 tsp baking soda
Cinnamon Sugar Mixture:
- ⅔ C sugar

- Over the 1/2 batter in each pan, sprinkle 3/4 of the cinnamon mixture.
- Spread the remaining batter into the pans; sprinkle the cinnamon topping on top.
- Knife-swirl the mixture. At 350 degrees, bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick tester comes out clean.
