Recipe video above. Easy to make, this easy Cinnamon Swirl Quick Bread is made without yeast! It's super moist - and stays moist for days afterwards - it tastes buttery and you get gorgeous pockets of sweet sticky cinnamon sugar! 

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups / 375g plain flour (all purpose flour)
1 cup / 220g white sugar
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
3 eggs
1/2 cup / 125 ml vegetable oil
1 1/3 cups / 290g sour cream ((Note 1))
2 tsp vanilla extract
60g / 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 tbsp cinnamon powder
3/4 cup / 165 g brown sugar, packed

Method

1
Preheat oven to 180C/350F (all oven types).
2
Grease a loaf tin approximately 21 x 11 cm / 8" x 4" and line with baking paper, leaving overhang (see video).
3
Place Dry Ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine.
4
Place Wet Ingredients in a separate bowl and whisk until combined.
5
Place Cinnamon Sugar ingredients in a bowl and mix to combine (it should be like a slurry, see video).
6
Make a well in the Dry Ingredients bowl. Pour in Wet Ingredients, then mix 12 - 15 times until just combined (few lumps ok, see video).
7
Spoon about 1/4 of the batter into the tin (about 1.5cm / 3/5" deep) and smooth surface.
8
Dollop about 1/3 of the Cinnamon Sugar over the batter.
9
Top with half the remaining batter. Dollop the remaining Cinnamon Sugar over the batter. Drag a butter knife back and forth (lengthwise and cross wisto make the swirls. Top with remaining batter - dollop it on, the more the Cinnamon Sugar is moved about, the more swirls!
10
Bake uncovered for 45 minutes. Then remove and cover with foil, and bake for a further 20 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean.
11
Stand in the tin for 5 minutes before lifting it out onto a cooling rack. Allow to cool before slicing (can still be warm but don't slice while hot, may crumble). Moist and flavoursome enough to eat plain but a little extra butter doesn't hurt!
