Quick Amish Cinnamon Bread Recipe: It’s moist, sweet, tasty, & loaded with cinnamon & sugar.
I don’t know about you but I love eating Amish Friendship Bread but I don’t love having to wait 10 days before I can eat it. It’s such a long process & although it tastes incredible I find it to be a big hassle so I never make it. I love this alternative recipe because you can whip it up in no time & enjoy it the same day! It makes a great breakfast & tastes marvelous smothered with butter or plain (seriously, it doesn’t even need butter to taste scrumptious).
It’s a quick and easy Amish Friendship Bread Alternative. No 10 day wait. You just mix it up & bake it. It’s moist, sweet, tasty, & loaded with cinnamon & sugar. Swirled with cinnamon & sugar on the inside. Topped with cinnamon & sugar on the outside.
