Here’s a delicious Cinnamon Donut Bread recipe, combining the tender texture of a donut with the simplicity of a quick bread. Topped with a buttery cinnamon sugar coating, this bread is perfect for breakfast, a snack, or dessert!

Ingredients (Makes 1 loaf):

For the Bread:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup buttermilk (or 1 cup milk + 1 tbsp vinegar or lemon juice)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

For the Cinnamon Sugar Topping:

  • 2 tbsp melted butter
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

Tips for Success:

  • Don’t overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the bread dense.
  • Use room temperature ingredients for a smoother batter.
  • Apply the topping while the bread is warm to ensure it sticks.

How to Make Cinnamon Donut Bread:

1. Preheat the Oven:

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

2. Prepare the Dry Ingredients:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.

3. Mix the Wet Ingredients:

  • In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.

4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:

  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk. Mix until just combined.

5. Bake the Bread:

  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack.

6. Add the Cinnamon Sugar Topping:

  • Brush the top and sides of the warm bread with melted butter.
  • In a small bowl, mix the sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle or press the mixture onto the top and sides of the bread.

7. Serve:

  • Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. It’s perfect on its own or with a cup of coffee or tea.
