Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon.
  3. Cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the milk and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
  5. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
  6. Pour half of the batter into the loaf pan and sprinkle half of the cinnamon sugar topping.
  7. Add the remaining batter on top and sprinkle the rest of the cinnamon sugar topping.
  8. Swirl through the batter with a knife to create a marbled effect.
  9. Bake for 50-60 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  10. Let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
