“My mom’s grandmother use to make these. Then when she passed away no one had the recipe, but I’ve been hearing about them my whole life.”

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together melted butter, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract.
Combine Wet and Dry: Slowly pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients, stirring just until combined. Avoid overmixing.
Pour into Pan: Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
Bake: Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If browning too quickly, loosely cover with foil for the last 10 minutes.
Make Cinnamon Sugar Topping: Combine granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
Apply Topping: Once the bread is out of the oven and still warm, brush the top with melted butter and generously sprinkle with cinnamon sugar mixture.
Cool and Serve: Let the bread cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and enjoy!
