Ingredients
 

  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 cups buttermilk, see notes for substitute
  • 4 cups flour
  • 2 tsp baking soda

For the Cinnamon Sugar Mixture

  • ⅔ cup sugar
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and grease two loaf pans with butter or nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a mixer, beat the butter sugar, and eggs together until creamy.  
  • To the egg mixture add the buttermilk, flour, and baking soda. Gently mix until combined.
  • In a separate bowl mix together sugar and ground cinnamon. 
  • Spread about a quarter (¼) of the batter in the bottom of each prepared loaf pan (half of the batter in total for both pans). Sprinkle ¾ of the cinnamon mixture on top of the batter in each pan. 
  • Divide the remaining batter between each pan and sprinkle all over with the remaining sugar-cinnamon mixture on top. Swirl with a knife.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 20 minutes before removing. Cool completely in a wire rack before slicing.
