Instructions<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Preheat your oven to 175\u00b0C (350\u00b0F). Grease and line a loaf pan.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. In another bowl, mix milk, oil (or melted butter), egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. Let the loaf cool for about 10 minutes, then remove from the pan.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  8. Brush the warm loaf with melted butter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  9. In a small bowl, mix sugar and cinnamon, then sprinkle or roll the loaf in the mixture until fully coated.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Method<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    This recipe uses the quick-bread method, meaning no yeast is needed. The batter comes together quickly by combining dry and wet ingredients separately, then mixing them gently to keep the loaf tender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Do not overmix the batter to keep the loaf soft
    Use room temperature ingredients for better texture
    Add a light glaze if you want extra sweetness<\/p>\n\n\n\n
