Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.

Step 2

Make bread: Beat flour, sugar, buttermilk, eggs, oil, vanilla, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and baking soda in a large mixing bowl until well combined, about 3 minutes. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan; smooth the top.

Step 3

Make topping: Stir together sugar, margarine, and cinnamon in a small bowl until crumbly; sprinkle over batter. Use a paring knife to swirl batter for a marbled effect.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Remove bread from the pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
