Categories     Dessert

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
1 Tablespoon ground cinnamon
2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 large egg, at room temperature
3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
1/3 cup (80ml) vegetable oil
1/3 cup (80g) sour cream (or plain yogurt/Greek yogurt), at room temperature*
2/3 cup (160ml) whole milk, at room temperature*
1 and 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
optional: vanilla icing

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Spray a 9×5 inch loaf pan with nonstick spray.
  • Mix the 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar and 1 Tablespoon of ground cinnamon together.
  • Whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl. In a medium bowl, whisk the egg and 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar together until combined. Whisk in the oil, sour cream, milk, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, then whisk to completely combine. Avoid over-mixing. You will have about 3 cups of batter.
  • Pour/spread half of the batter into prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle almost all of the cinnamon sugar evenly on top (reserve about 2 Tablespoons for topping). It's a very thick layer of cinnamon sugar. Carefully pour/spread remaining batter evenly on top. The top layer of batter will want to stick to the cinnamon sugar filling, making spreading a little tougher to do, but use a spoon to carefully spread it out as best you can. Sprinkle with the rest of the cinnamon sugar. Using a knife, make a large swirl down the loaf pan, as shown in the video tutorial above. Avoid over-swirling, which will mix the layers together too much.
  • Bake the bread for 50 minutes to 1 hour, covering loosely with foil about halfway through to prevent the top from over-browning. Poke the center of the bread with a toothpick. If it comes out clean, the bread is done. Oven times will vary between ovens. My bread usually takes 55 minutes. Cool bread completely in the pan set on a wire rack.
  • Drizzle with icing, if using. Slice and serve. Cover and store leftover bread at room temperature for 1 day or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

LOWER-FAT CINNAMON SWIRL QUICK BREAD



Lower-Fat Cinnamon Swirl Quick Bread image

This is an easy and DELICIOUS cinnamon swirl bread. My family loves it...it's hard to keep on the shelf for long! This is lower fat because my recipe substitutes applesauce for most of the oil, but you cannot tell..it makes it better I think. We also don't make the glaze all the time- and love the bread even without it!

Cinnamon and Sugar Quick Bread Recipe image

Our cinnamon sugar quick bread is a favorite delicious dessert recipe, yes even though it is a quick bread!

Provided by Camille Beckstrand

Categories     Side Dish

Time 2h15m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1½ cups sugar
¾ cup unsalted butter (( 1½ sticks))
1½ teaspoons vanilla extract
3 eggs ((room temperature))
3 cups all-purpose flour
1½ teaspoons baking powder
1½ teaspoons baking soda
¾ teaspoon salt
1½ cups sour cream
1 cup brown sugar
1 Tablespoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Spray the inside (bottom and sides) of 2 loaf pans with non-stick cooking spray. I used 9"x5"x3" pans. Set pans aside.
  • In a small mixing bowl, prepare the brown sugar cinnamon filling and set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat together sugar, butter, vanilla extract, and eggs with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Alternate adding the flour mixture and the sour cream to the creamed butter/sugar mixture while mixing on a low speed. Combine until just blended (be sure to not overmix).
  • Pour 1 1/2 cups of the batter into the bottom of each pan (should be about 1/4 of the batter in each pan).
  • Sprinkle 1/4 cup of the brown sugar filling in each pan on top of the batter.
  • Top with another 1 1/2 cups of batter in each pan, then divide and sprinkle the remaining brown sugar filling on the batter in each pan.
  • Bake for 55-65 minutes (start checking it around 55 minutes) until a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf pan comes out clean.
  • Let the bread cool in the pans for 5-10 minutes and then remove from pans and let them completely cool on a wire rack.

Tips:

  • Use light or low-fat cream cheese: This will reduce the overall fat content of the bread without sacrificing flavor.
  • Use a combination of whole wheat and all-purpose flour: This will add fiber and nutrients to the bread while still keeping it light and fluffy.
  • Use unsweetened applesauce: This will add moisture and sweetness to the bread without adding any extra sugar.
  • Use low-fat or fat-free milk: This will also reduce the overall fat content of the bread.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the bread is cooked through.

Conclusion:

This lower-fat cinnamon swirl quick bread is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. It is also a great way to use up any leftover cream cheese or applesauce. With its reduced fat content and wholesome ingredients, this bread is a healthier choice that the whole family will enjoy.
