When the house has the aroma of warm cinnamon, that is the best smell for me. I love to make this cinnamon bread for that purpose alone. This recipe was given to me by a good friend, I did make subtle changes that fit for my family, just as you could do for your family with any recipe.
This bread is great for breakfast, for afternoon tea or as a snack in the evening.
This is actually a quick bread, but like any good quick bread it will take time. I never fully understood calling it a quick bread, except I do not wait for the bread to rise.
The unique way this cinnamon swirl bread is made reminds me of the Sunday morning Coffee Streusel Cake my Mom would make before heading to church. That is almost the exact smell too.
Can I add ingredients to the recipe?
I am not sure what you mean by ingredients. If you mean apples that have been cut, that would be fantastic. I do know some people who add cranberries and chocolate chips. Let your imagination rule.
How do I store this Cinnamon Swirl Bread?
The bread can be placed in a ziploc bag and stored on the counter or in the refrigerator. It will obviously stay fresh a day or two longer when kept in the refrigerator.

You can definitely wrap this bread tightly and cover it a few times to keep it fresh and protected in the freezer. It can remain in the freezer for up to 4 months.
