Amish Cinnamon Bread is a soft, sweet, no-yeast quick bread with a buttery cinnamon-sugar swirl—kind of like a cross between cake and bread. It’s super easy and perfect with tea ☕

👩🍳 Instructions:

- Add remaining batter, then top with the rest of cinnamon sugar.
- Swirl lightly with a knife.
- Bake for 45–50 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
✨ Tips:
- Don’t over-swirl—you want visible cinnamon layers
- Let it cool before slicing for clean pieces
- Tastes even better the next day
🍽️ Variations:
- Add chopped nuts or raisins
- Make muffins instead (bake ~20–25 min)
- Reduce sugar slightly if you prefer less sweetness
