If you like cinnamon, you are going to love this easy Amish cinnamon bread
recipe. I'll show you from start to finish! I'm Tess and welcome to my kitchen.
So let's get started! I'm making the cinnamon sugar mixture for in the middle and on
top of the cinnamon bread. And it is just that. A third of a cup of sugar and a
teaspoon of cinnamon. Give it a good stir and set to the side. You can find this
recipe and the list of ingredients in the description box below.
Next to making the bread batter. I have a half a cup of softened unsalted butter
and adding a cup of brown sugar. Giving that a whisk with my hand mixer. I just
want to get the butter to start to incorporate. Next, I am adding one whisked egg
and some pure vanilla extract.
Another good whisk to get everything well combined.
You can see the batter is getting smoother and just remember to scrape
down the sides of the bowl.
Now I'm adding the buttermilk. The buttermilk really makes this bread moist.
If you don't have buttermilk you can mix 1 cup of whole milk with a tablespoon of
lemon juice. You can also use white, apple or rice vinegar instead of the lemon
juice. Just let it stand for about five minutes before using. Giving that a good
mix and next I'm ready for my dry ingredients.
The recipe calls for two cups of all-purpose flour so I'm adding half now,
giving a good mix then adding the other half plus one teaspoon baking soda.

This is the quick and easy and delicious part of the cinnamon bread. These are
Hershey's cinnamon chips. If you can't find them in your grocery store you can order them online.
You can also make your own by melting vanilla chocolate chips, adding
cinnamon and piping out in small drops or kisses.
Adding the cinnamon chips to the batter and just folding in until well combined.
I don't want to over mix.
I have my oven preheating to 350 degrees. I buttered a loaf pan and you can use
spray or coconut oil. I'm putting half of my batter in the pan, spreading out
evenly, next I'm sprinkling three-quarters of my cinnamon sugar
mixture on top. It is smelling good already! And next goes in the remaining
batter, again, spread the batter out evenly and this does not have to be
perfect and you will soon see why. Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon sugar on top.
Now the fun part! I'm taking a knife and making some swirls to lightly mix the layer
of batter and cinnamon sugar. Just slightly! Some of the cinnamon sugar will
remain on top and form a nice sugary crust.
Baking at 350 degrees for 45 to 50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
I so wish you could smell this! I'm letting the cinnamon bread cool in the
pan for about 20 minutes and then removing and letting completely cool on
a wire rack, if it lasts that long!
I really like this Amish cinnamon bread slightly warm with a slab of butter!
OH MY! It is so good! The bread is very moist with a rich flavor of cinnamon.
Not too sweet but you get that bursts of sweetness from the crunchy cinnamon
sugary crust. No bread starter needed. This recipe is easy and delicious. Nice for
any time of the day, breakfast, brunch, lunch a snack or I have had for dinner
with a cup of coffee!
Oh and did I mention dessert?! I will have to make you some authentic Amish
cinnamon rolls someday but this is just as good and easier. If you like cinnamon
give this recipe a try.
Also great to take to a party or give as a gift. I hope you enjoy this easy Amish
cinnamon bread. Another recipe from central Pennsylvania Dutch Amish country.
Enjoy.
