My wife is feeling better with her two new knees and decided to bake Amish Cinnamon bread. She found the recipe on facebook. It turned out great.
Since I do most all the cooking she doesn’t get in the kitchen much. It’s mostly when she wants to make some kind of dessert. Since she does most of the clean up after I cook I thought I better post one of her good recipes and share it.
It is kind of a cake like bread but is worth making.
Recipe:
Amish Cinnamon Bread
No kneading you just mix it up and bake:
1 cup butter, softened
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
2 cups buttermilk
4 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
Cinnamon sugar mix: 2/3 cup sugar and 2 teaspoons cinnamon
Directions:
Cream together butter, 2 cups of sugar and eggs. Add milk, flour and baking soda, mix well.
Put half the batter (or a little less) into greased loaf pans (1/4 in each pan). Sprinkle ¾ of the cinnamon sugar mix; half on the batter in each pan.
Add remaining batter; half to each pan. Sprinkle with the rest of the cinnamon mix.
Swirl with a knife.
Bake in a preheated 350 deg. F oven 45 to 50 minutes. Or until a tooth pick comes out clean.
Cool for twenty minutes before removing from the pans.
