This rich quick bread is a favorite with my family. I often give my husband a few slices to take with him on his commute to work, along with a tall travel mug of coffee. Ingredients:
1/4 cup butter, softened |
1 1/3 cups sugar, divided |
1 egg |
2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 cup buttermilk |
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. In a large mixing bowl, beat together butter, 1 cup sugar, and egg.
3. Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
4. Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture alternately with the buttermilk.
5. In a small bowl, combine the cinnamon and remaining 1/3 cup sugar.
6. Pour a third of the batter into a greased 8X4X2-inch loaf pan.
7. Sprinkle a third of the cinnamon sugar on top of batter.
8. Repeat layers twice.
9. Bake for 45-50 minutes, until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
10. Cool in pan for 10 minutes.
11. Remove from pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
