There’s a reason Amish cinnamon bread has become a beloved classic: it’s simple, comforting, and impossibly fragrant—a tender loaf swirled with cinnamon-sugar, baked in a humble loaf pan, and finished with a crackly, sweet crust.
No fancy ingredients. No stand mixer. Just pantry staples, one bowl, and 10 minutes of prep for a loaf that tastes like it came from an Amish market stall.
Perfect for breakfast, afternoon tea, or a midnight snack—this bread is pure nostalgia in every slice.
