- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heavily grease and lightly sprinkle with flour a 9 x 5-inch bread pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and 1 tablespoon of cinnamon.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the milk and lemon juice; let stand for 5 minutes. Add the vegetable oil, vanilla, and eggs. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in 3 parts stirring just until incorporated.

In a small bowl, stir together brown sugar, 1 1/2 tablespoons cinnamon, and melted butter. Pour 1/2 of the batter into the loaf pan. Make 3 lines the length of the pan with the cinnamon butter. Turn the pan horizontally and swirl with the end of a skewer or toothpick. The best way to swirl is to make S or 8 shapes. Do not overdo it, or everything will mix together. Add the rest of the batter and make 3 lines the length of the pan with the cinnamon butter. Now turn the pan horizontally and swirl with the end of a skewer or toothpick.
Bake for 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the loaf to cool for 5 minutes and then invert.

Grease and flour the pan, or use nonstick baking spray with flour.
If you love raisins, add 1/2 cup when stirring in the flour. You can also add a handful of chopped pecans or walnuts.
Stir the dough by hand until it is incorporated. Sweet bread dough can become tough if over-stirred.
Don’t over-swirl the cinnamon butter.
Let the loaf cool for 5-10 minutes before inverting. Quick breads can stick if allowed to cool too long in the pan.
Once cooled, cover with wrap and store at room temperature for up to 3 days.
To add a glaze, mix 1 cup powdered sugar with 1 1/2-2 tablespoons milk and drizzle over the thoroughly cooled bread.
Use this tasty bread to make French Toast. You won’t believe how delicious it is!
