Step-by-Step Instructions for Cinnamon Sugar Donut Bread
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon.
  3. In another bowl, cream together softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add eggs one at a time, then stir in milk and vanilla extract until smooth.
  5. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
  6. Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle with half of the cinnamon-sugar topping.
  7. Add the remaining batter and finish with the rest of the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  8. Gently swirl the batter with a knife in a figure-eight motion to create a marbled effect.
  9. Bake for 50-60 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  10. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
