CINNAMON BREAD

Cinnamon Bread is an easy sweet bread that comes together quickly and is swirled with sweet cinnamon butter.  This moist loaf is perfect for breakfast, holiday brunch, afternoon snacks, or even dessert. I have always loved cinnamon, and this homemade bread is truly a cinnamon lover’s dream come true.  Prepare to be wowed.  It takes about twenty-five minutes to prep this loaf and get it in the oven.

WHERE DOES CINNAMON COME FROM, AND HOW DOES IT GROW?

Most of the world’s cinnamon comes from Sri Lanka, off the southern tip of India. This delicious spice comes from the inner bark of several species of trees. The cinnamon sticks that you see in the store are this inner bark that has been cut into individual-size sticks.  Grinding the dried sticks to powder makes the spice easier to add to your recipes.
