It snowed at our house this morning…March 22nd! So, I felt like something warm and fragrant to fill our home. Inspired by a cinnamon swirl quick bread recipe at tasteofhome.com, this is how I filled our home with a sweet scent and my mouth with pockets of cinnamony goodness!
2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup cinnamon chips
1 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup oil
1 egg
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
3 tsp cinnamon
Preheat oven to 350°. Stir together flour, 1 cup sugar, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon chips. In another bowl, stir together buttermilk, oil, and egg. Stir buttermilk mixture into flour mixture just until combined. In small bowl, stir together 1/4 cup sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, and cinnamon.
Spread half the batter into a 9″x5″ loaf pan that has been sprayed on the bottom. Sprinkle half the cinnamon sugar mixture over batter. Gently spread remaining batter over then sprinkle remaining cinnamon mixture over top. With knife, cut through batter to swirl. Bake for 55-60 minutes or until pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan for 15 minutes, remove from pan, and continue cooling on wire rack.

OK, I’ve never used cinnamon chips–have I even seen them? Are they with the chocolate chips at the market? I’m going to track this down. It looks super delicious and Larry loves cinnamon. thanks Kristen!
I used to buy them online from places like King Arthur Flour but now I find Hershey’s cinnamon chips in the grocery store. My husband loves cinnamon too, plus it makes the house smell so wonderful!
