Snickerdoodle Bread Recipe
Snickerdoodle Bread is a cinnamon-spiced quick bread that incorporates cinnamon chips folded into a buttery batter with sour cream for moisture and tang. The batter is baked in loaf pans topped with a cinnamon-sugar sprinkle that forms a sweet, slightly crunchy crust. This bread combines the familiar flavors of snickerdoodle cookies with the tenderness of loaf bread for a comforting, cinnamon-forward treat.
Ingredients
Dough
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened
- 2 cups sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 3 egg large
- ¾ cup sour cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 (10-ounce) package cinnamon chips Hershey's brand
Cinnamon-Sugar Mixture
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease two large 5 x 9-inch loaf pans with cooking spray and set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream butter, sugar, cinnamon, and salt with a hand mixer until fluffy. Add eggs and mix well. Then add sour cream and vanilla and mix well.
- Mix flour and baking powder in a separate bowl. Add to wet ingredients and mix until all combined.
- Add cinnamon chips and stir into batter. Set aside.
- Spoon batter evenly into the prepared loaf pans.
- TO make the cinnamon-sugar mixture, mix sugar and cinnamon in a bowl and sprinkle over the batter in each loaf pan.
- Tent pans with aluminum foil and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. Let cool before removing from pan and slicing.
Notes
- Store cooled loaves at room temperature for up to 4 days or refrigerate for up to a week; tightly wrap for freshness.
- Freeze wrapped loaves for up to 4 months; thaw at room temperature before serving.
- Cinnamon chips can be ordered online if unavailable locally; white chocolate chips are an acceptable substitute.
- Coat cinnamon chips with flour before mixing into batter to prevent sinking.
- To make Snickerdoodle Muffins, divide batter into lined muffin tins and bake 18-20 minutes at 350°F.
