Main Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon until well mixed.
- In another bowl, mix the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until combined.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Baking
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center; it should come out clean.
- Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then remove it from the pan.
Finishing Touches
- Brush the warm bread with melted butter, and sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture generously over the top.
- Slice the bread and serve warm or at room temperature.
