Old Fashioned Cinnamon Loaf: Ingredients: ¼ Cup of Shortening or Butter (I used butter) 1 Cup of Sugar 2 Cups of Flour 2 Eggs 1 Teaspoon of Baking Powder ½ Teaspoon of Baking Soda 1 Teaspoon of Vanilla 1 Teaspoon of Salt 1 Cup Sour Milk (To sour fresh milk, just add a tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice) 3.4 cups of raisins (optional) Vanilla Sugar (optional) Topping Mix: 1 Tablespoon Cinnamon 3 Tablespoons Brown Sugar Mix in a small bowl Directions: Cream shortening or butter with sugar in a large mixing bowl Add eggs, beating until fluffy. Mix your dry ingredients together in a separate bowl, then add them alternately with milk to creamed butter and sugar. Mix until thoroughly blended Put half of the mixture into loaf pan that you have greased with butter and lightly floured to prevent sticking. Sprinkle about 1/2 the topping over the batter. Add rest of the mixture on top and swirl through with a spoon or a butter knife. Sprinkle with vanilla sugar if desired Alternatively, you can put all the cinnamon.brown sugar in after the first half of batter, top with remaining batter and swirl with a spoon of butter knife. I chose to create a bit of a cinnamon.vanilla crust, that is why I topped the loaf with remaining topping. Bake at 350 F for about 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean. Cool for about 10-15 minutes in the pan, then invert onto a rack and cool This Cinnamon Loaf tastes incredible – especially when you serve it still warm !
