📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat the oven. Preheat to 350°F. Grease a 9x5 cast iron loaf pan or standard 9×5 loaf pan.
2
Mix the dry ingredients. In a medium bowl, whisk together the freshly milled soft white wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

3
Mix the wet ingredients. In a large bowl, whisk together all wet ingredients, butter, sugar, eggs, milk and vanilla.
½ cup butter (melted and slightly cooled)melted butter2 tbsplarge eggs (room temperature)2
4
Combine. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and gently stir just until combined. Do not overmix.
5
Make the cinnamon swirl. In a small bowl, mix together the sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter.

6
Layer the batter. Pour about 3/4 of the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly. Sprinkle most of the cinnamon sugar mixture over the batter, reserving about a tbsp or two for the topping. Add the remaining batter, then sprinkle the rest of the cinnamon mixture evenly over the top.

Swirl: Use a knife or skewer to gently swirl the cinnamon mixture through the batter. I start at one end and do a ribbon pattern to the other end.

Bake: Bake for 50–⏱️ 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs. After about ⏱️ 45 minutes of baking, I like to tent it with foil to keep the top from browning too much.
9
Cool: Let the bread cool in the pan for 10–⏱️ 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
