Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180C. Grease a loaf tin and set aside.
- Cream together the butter, sugar. Once light and fluffy add in the egg. Sift together the flour and baking soda. Slowly add a third of the flour to the butter mixture and then a third of the milk mixture, continue alternating between the milk and flour until the batter is smooth. Don’t over beat it.
- Pour half the batter into your loaf tin and then sprinkle half the cinnamon & sugar mixture over the top. Take a knife and swirl the cinnamon & sugar through the batter. Pour the rest of the batter on top and sprinkle the rest of the cinnamon & sugar on the very top (don’t swirl this time)
- Pop your loaf in the oven and bake for 45-50 minutes (or until a skew tester comes out clean).
- Keep your eye on this precious bread – you don’t want the sugar to brown too much. If it starts looking too dark, pop some tinfoil over the top.
- Now for the hardest part – leave the loaf in the tin to cool for 20 minutes before turning it out onto a wire rack.
