Cinnamon bread is delicious, especially with the addition of maple.
Alright, look. Sometimes, not always, just every now and then, I see a recipe and I think “oh, that will smell amazing.” And then I make the recipe.
Not because I’m hungry, not because it’s dinner time, not because I have guests coming over who might appreciate delicious baked goods. No. I make recipes because they will probably make my house smell like Fall blew up in it.
Why, yes. I do know that they sell candles for just this reason. In fact, I even own some of those candles!
You won’t need to light a candle all day to get your house smelling yummy with this quick bread!
Real food just smells more, you know, real. Besides, even if I’m not hungry when I start mixing up the ingredients, by the time the smells start kicking in, you know my tummy will be grumbling.
In conclusion, I am not weird, Fall smells amazing, candles are over-rated, and you should go bake some of this bread.
The end.

My cinnamon and cold refrigerated butter did not cut into pea size pieces. At first it was hard and did not want to cut, then when it did, it just started blending and began to become more of a spread. I gave up and just put the batter in the pan without the cinnamon butter pieces. My daughter has now donned latex gloves and is trying to dab small pieces onto the top of the loaves. It won’t be the same, I am sure, but we will see how it turns out.

THIS SMEELS AMAZING. So much that it woke my daughter up out of a sound sleep. If it tastes half as good as it smells it will be heaven.
