Cinnamon Swirl Quick Bread

 

On my way to 365 recipes in 365 days.  Here is recipe 50. 

My favorite kind of weekend breakfast is warm sweet bread and fruit.  The taste of this cinnamon bread is wonderful with a cup of green tea and a big bowl of strawberries.

The inside is so pretty when you cut in to it.  It is swirled and marbled with a yummy cinnamon sugar layer.
