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 flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon until combined.
  3. Cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until pale and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
  4. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, and mix in the milk and vanilla extract until smooth.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined.
  6. Pour half of the batter into the loaf pan and sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture on top.
  7. Add the remaining batter and sprinkle the rest of the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Swirl gently with a knife.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes, checking doneness with a toothpick.
  9. Cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
