Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups / 375g plain flour (all purpose flour)
- 1 cup / 220g white sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 cup / 125 ml vegetable oil
- 1 1/3 cups / 290g sour cream ((Note 1))
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 60 g / 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1 1/2 tbsp cinnamon powder
- 3/4 cup / 165 g brown sugar, packed
Steps
-
Preheat oven to 180C/350F (all oven types).
-
Grease a loaf tin approximately 21 x 11 cm / 8" x 4" and line with baking paper, leaving overhang (see video).
-
Place Dry Ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine.
-
Place Wet Ingredients in a separate bowl and whisk until combined.
-
Place Cinnamon Sugar ingredients in a bowl and mix to combine (it should be like a slurry, see video).
-
Make a well in the Dry Ingredients bowl. Pour in Wet Ingredients, then mix 12 - 15 times until just combined (few lumps ok, see video).
-
Spoon about 1/4 of the batter into the tin (about 1.5cm / 3/5" deep) and smooth surface.
-
Dollop about 1/3 of the Cinnamon Sugar over the batter.
-
Top with half the remaining batter. Dollop the remaining Cinnamon Sugar over the batter. Drag a butter knife back and forth (lengthwise and cross wisto make the swirls. Top with remaining batter - dollop it on, the more the Cinnamon Sugar is moved about, the more swirls!
-
Bake uncovered for 45 minutes. Then remove and cover with foil, and bake for a further 20 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean.
-
Stand in the tin for 5 minutes before lifting it out onto a cooling rack. Allow to cool before slicing (can still be warm but don't slice while hot, may crumble). Moist and flavoursome enough to eat plain but a little extra butter doesn't hurt!
