Cinnamon Donut Bread

Cinnamon donut bread sounds delicious! Here’s a simple recipe you can follow to make it:

Ingredients:

• For the bread:

  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup mini chocolate chips or chopped nuts (optional)

• For the cinnamon sugar topping:

  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg (if using).

3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, beat the eggs. Add the milk, melted butter, sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and combined.

4. Combine Wet and Dry: Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. If you’re using chocolate chips or nuts, fold them in now.

5. Pour and Bake: Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan, smoothing out the top. Bake for about 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

6. Prepare Cinnamon Sugar Topping: While the bread is baking, combine the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Melt the butter in another bowl.

7. Add Cinnamon Sugar: Once the bread is done, let it cool for about 10 minutes before removing it from the pan. Brush the warm loaf with the melted butter, then roll it in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated.

8. Serve: Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing and serving. Enjoy your cinnamon donut bread with a cup of coffee or tea!
