Awesome-Tasting Food!! // cinnamon coffee cake

I haven't been around in awhile and it is time to give you another recipe.  For some reason coffee cake has sound really good of late so this is what the recipe will be on.  I know I did a recipe on  Pancakes last time, but hey, who doesn't like breakfast food? And who said you had to have it for breakfast?

Cinnamon Coffee Cake Loaf

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1-1/4 cups sugar, divided
• 3 teaspoons baking powder
• 3-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided
• 1-1/4 teaspoons salt
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1/3 cup vegetable oil
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 3 tablespoons butter, melted

In a large bowl, combine the flour, 1 cup sugar, baking powder, 1-1/2 teaspoons cinnamon, and salt. In another large bowl, combine the eggs, buttermilk, oil, and vanilla; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Pour half of the batter into a greased 9-in. x 5-in. loaf pan. In a small bowl, combine the remaining sugar and cinnamon; stir in butter. Sprinkle with half the cinnamon-sugar mixture; cut through batter with a knife to swirl the topping. Repeat. Bake at 350 degrees for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack to cool completely.  Makes one loaf.


Now go fix a glass of milk (or coffee) and enjoy your coffee cake.
