Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon until combined.
  3. In another bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add eggs, milk, and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and mix until combined.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
  6. Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle half of the cinnamon sugar over it.
  7. Spoon the remaining batter into the pan and top it with the remaining cinnamon sugar.
  8. Gently swirl through the batter with a knife to create a marbled effect.
