To make this Cinnamon Swirl Loaf, you will need the following ingredients:
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
- 1/2 cup warm milk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
To start, combine the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, salt, and yeast in a large mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the warm milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until a soft dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5-10 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour.
After the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a large rectangle. Brush the melted butter over the surface of the dough, then sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture on top. Roll the dough up tightly, starting from the long side, and pinch the edges to seal.
Place the rolled dough into a greased loaf pan and let it rise for another 30 minutes. Preheat your oven to 350°F and bake the loaf for 35-40 minutes, or until it is golden brown and cooked through.
Once the Cinnamon Swirl Loaf is finished baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This delicious bread is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert, and is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
