SNICKERDOODLE BREAD

Filed under Breads
Ingredients
2 1/2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup butter, softened
2 cups sugar
3 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 cup sour cream
1 1/2 cups cinnamon chips
1 tablespoon flour

Topping:
2 T. sugar
2 t. cinnamon

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine 2 1/2 cups flour and baking powder in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, cream together the butter and 2 cups sugar, salt and cinnamon until fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add vanilla and sour cream and mix to combine. Stir in flour mixture until just combined. Coat the cinnamon chips with 1 tablespoon of flour and stir into the batter.  Spoon the batter into four or five greased mini loaf pans (or two 9x5 loaf pans). Combine the 2 tablespoons sugar and 2 teaspoons cinnamon and sprinkle over each loaf. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes for mini loaves (or 60-70 minutes for full-size loaves), or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from oven and let cool 5 minutes before removing from pan.

Let's Dish
I find after the holidays are over that I'm still craving cookies, but to be honest, I'm a little tired of making them.  This snickerdoodle bread is the perfect solution!  It's satisfies my craving without all the work of baking cookies.  It's got a wonderful, soft texture and tons of cinnamon flavor.  It can be tricky to find cinnamon chips sometimes (which is why I always stockpile them in my freezer), but since it's not too long past the holidays, you should be able to round some up.  I hid a few loaves in the freezer, and my family polished the rest of in just a few days.
 
Who Dished It Up First

  5. This looks great, but I'm with Cassandra. I can't find cinnamon chips anywhere! Do any stores care them, or do I need to order them online?

  9. No lie, Danelle, I have a snickerdoodle snack cake to blog about from just before Thanksgiving and I have a snickerdoodle bread recipe printed out at the same time from Barbara Bakes. Yours looks terrific. Cranberry Almond cake first then Snickerdoodle bread.

  10. The cookie I've been known for since I was eight. I mixed up the dough and rolled the balls out, accidentally adding cinnamon sugar twice. Everyone thought they were better that way, and in our family, they've been baked like that ever since. Would be fun to try the cookie in bread form!

    Cheers,

  18. This looks almost like the cinnamon chip bread I made from King Arthur Flour. Except I like the nams Snickerdoodle Bread much better!

  21. I made this cake tonight and it turned as really well. These snickerdoodle recipe series are all really good!

    I did have to do some changes "on the fly"...I didnt have enough eggs so I only used 2, and I also had not enough sour cream (ate those with perogies the other day) so I topped up with heavy cream. Even with these improvisations, the cake fluffed up really high - almost over the top of my cake pan. And the taste is quite moist and light.
    This makes a great after work snack cake or a great brunch cake at Christmas time.
    *going back to eating my cake now*
