Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2/3 cup whole milk, at room temperature
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/3 cup full-fat sour cream (or plain yogurt), at room temperature
  • 1 large egg, at room temperature
  • 1 and 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • optional: vanilla icing

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C) and spray a 9×5-inch loaf pan with nonstick spray.
  2. In a small bowl, mix granulated sugar and ground cinnamon for the filling; set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. In a medium bowl, combine sugar, milk, oil, sour cream, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Combine wet and dry ingredients without over-mixing. Pour half the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle most of the cinnamon-sugar mixture on top. Add the remaining batter and sprinkle with reserved sugar mixture. Swirl gently with a knife.
  5. Bake for 50-65 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for an hour before transferring to a cooling rack.
