Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons white sugar, divided
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons unsalted butter
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and lightly spray a 9×5-inch loaf pan with nonstick spray.
Whisk flour, 1 cup sugar, baking powder, baking soda, 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon, and salt together in a large bowl. Stir buttermilk, applesauce, eggs, and vanilla together in a cup.
Stir wet ingredients into dry ingredients until well combined. Pour into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
Combine remaining sugar, cinnamon, and butter in a small bowl with a fork until crumbly. Sprinkle over batter in loaf pan.
Bake until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean, about 50 minutes.
Cook’s Note
For a chocolate swirl bread, you can reserve 1/3 cup of batter, add about 1 tablespoon cocoa powder, then dollop and swirl into the batter in the loaf pan before adding the topping in step 4..
