Buttermilk Cinnamon Bread - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 c. all-purpose flour
2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
1/2 c. vegetable oil
2 1/2 c. sugar, divided
2 c. buttermilk
2 eggs
1 Tbsp. ground cinnamon
2 Tbsp. walnuts, finely chopped

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350\u00b0. Spray two loaf pans, or 5 mini-loaf pans, with cooking spray and set aside. Combine cinnamon and 1 cup sugar; set aside. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside. In a small bowl, combine oil and 1 1/2 cups sugar. Add buttermilk and eggs; mix well. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fill the two loaf pans about 1/3 full with the batter. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of the cinnamon-sugar over each pan of batter. Top with remaining batter and cinnamon-sugar. Swirl batter with a knife. Sprinkle with nuts. Bake for 45 to 55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool in pans 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack.
