Ingredients
FOR THE DOUGH
- 1 cup yogurt (plain whole yogurt) (room temperature)
- 1 large egg (room temperature)
- 2½ cups all purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1½ teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 pinch salt (If using unsalted butter then add ¼ teaspoon of salt)
- ½ cup butter (cold and cubed)
FOR THE FILLING
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ¾ tablespoon cinnamon
- ¼ cup butter (very soft)
EXTRAS
- ⅓ cup finely chopped nuts or raisins (optional)
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 375F/190C. Grease and flour or spray a 9 inch / 23cm loaf pan.
- In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt, add the butter and mix to form coarse crumbs.
- In a large mixing bowl or stand mixture beat the yogurt and egg one minute, add the dry flour ingredients and combine on low to form a soft dough.
- Move the dough to a floured flat surface and pat into a rectangle, if too sticky then add a little more flour, then roll (long side) with a flour rolling pin to a 11x8 inch / 28x20cm rectangle. Spread the filling on top of the dough, sprinkle with the chopped nuts or raisins, roll up from the shorter side and place in the prepared loaf pan.
- Bake for approximately 20-25 minutes check for doneness with a toothpick. Immediately remove from the pan and let cool on a wire rack. Drizzle with a simple glaze if desired before serving. Enjoy!

Notes
- If using raisins be sure to soak them for 10-15 minutes in boiling water then drain well and pat dry. You could also soak them in orange juice or even rum.
- If you prefer for Christmas you could shape the dough into a candy shape on a parchment paper lined baking sheet.
- Store: As with most homemade quick breads, this is best on day one but does keep well up to 3 days stored in an airtight container. I love to enjoy it sliced and toasted although it would be great as French toast or bread pudding, too.
- Freeze: This cinnamon bread freezes well either whole or in slices. Wrap with plastic wrap then in aluminum foil and place in a freezer safe bag. Store for 2-3 months in the freezer. Thaw wrapped at room temperature and enjoy.
