3 cups all-purpose flour This forms the base, providing structure for your Cinnamon Sugar Donut Bread.
1 tablespoon baking powder A key leavening agent that ensures your bread rises beautifully.
1 teaspoon salt Just a pinch enhances all the flavors in the bread.
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon This aromatic spice is the star of the show.
½ cup unsalted butter Creates a rich, tender crumb; make sure it's softened for easy mixing.
1 cup granulated sugar Sweetens the deal beautifully.
2 large eggs Help bind the ingredients and add moisture to the loaf.
1 cup milk Adds richness and keeps the bread moist.
1 teaspoon vanilla extract A splash of vanilla enhances the flavor.

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon until uniform.
In another bowl, cream together softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Add eggs to the butter-sugar mixture one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Pour in milk and vanilla extract into the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture into your wet ingredients, stirring gently.
Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
Mix together granulated sugar and ground cinnamon, then sprinkle half of this mixture over the batter.
Pour the remaining batter over the first layer and top with the rest of the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
Using a knife, gently swirl through the batter to create a marbled effect.
Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Store your Cinnamon Sugar Donut Bread in an airtight container to retain its moisture and flavor.
