Kaneelbrood met wervelpatroon
Ingrediënten
- 2 cups Zelfrijzend bakmeel - (notitie 1)
- ¾ cup Ongeraffineerde rietsuiker - (notitie 2)
- 1 cup Amandelmelk - (notitie 3)
- ¼ cup Zuivelvrije Griekse yoghurt - (notitie 4)
- ⅓ cup Olijfolie met milde smaak - (notitie 5)
- 2 theelepels Vanille-extract
- ½ theelepel Zout
Kaneel suiker
- ⅓ cup Ongeraffineerde rietsuiker
- 2 theelepels Kaneel
Instructies
- Verwarm de oven voor tot 180 °C. Bekleed een broodvorm van 23 x 13 cm met bakpapier. Vet het bakpapier en de zijkanten van de vorm in met bakspray. Zet opzij.
- In a small bowl, prepare the cinnamon sugar: stir the sugar and cinnamon until well combined using a fork. Halve this batch, and place each half in a small bowl for the layers. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, add sugar, almond milk, yogurt, oil, and vanilla extract. Whisk to combine.
- Fold in the self-rising flour and use a rubber spatula to combine and form a smooth batter. Divide the batter in halves.
- Place the first half of the batter in the prepared loaf pan, sprinkle half of the cinnamon sugar made before on top of this batter. You want to evenly cover the batter with the cinnamon sugar.
- Add the remaining batter and finish by evenly sprinkling the remaining cinnamon sugar on top of the bread.
- Grab a thin skewer and insert it vertically into one end of the loaf pan all the way to the bottom of the loaf pan. Swirl in an S shape until reaching the other end of the pan. Swirl again in the other direction – it should look like you are forming number 8 shapes in the batter. Don't over-swirl. One go in both directions is enough. Remove the skewer from the pan.
- Bake the bread for 50-55 minutes at 350°F (180°C) until a pick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean. After 40 minutes, I recommend adding a piece of foil on top of the pan to prevent the bread from darkening too fast.
- Cool the bread in the pan for 5 minutes, then pull the hanging parts of parchment paper to release on a cooling rack.
- Cool for at least 3 hours before glazing.

Ingrediënten en vervangingen
Voor dit recept heb je maar een paar gezonde ingrediënten nodig. Zo kies je ze.

- Zelfrijzend bakmeel – With its included baking powder, this flour makes the bread’s crumb fluffy and airy. You can also make your own by whisking all-purpose flour with baking powder (about 4-5 teaspoons per 2 cups). For a gluten-free option, use my glutenvrije converter, Maar vergeet het bakpoeder niet.
- Suiker – To sweeten the batter and contribute to the tender crumb while adding some crispness on top. You can swap it for brown sugar, coconut sugar, or unrefined cane sugar if you prefer a different flavor, but steer clear of liquid sweeteners that can upset the texture. I also use it for the cinnamon sugar.
- Amandelmelk – This brings a nutty flavor and helps with the fluffy crumb. You can use any plant-based milk like oat or soy milk.
- Zuivelvrije Griekse yoghurt – This brings some tang, creaminess, and extra moisture to the loaf. You can use any dairy-free yogurt such as coconut or cashew yogurt while keeping the recipe dairy-free. Using a thicker yogurt is key for the right texture. If you eat dairy, classic yogurt should work as well.
- Lichte olijfolie – Contributes healthy fat and moisture, keeping the bread tender without the saturated fat of butter. Canola or avocado oil are good substitutes as long as they have a neutral flavor.
- Vanille-extract – For a delicious vanilla crumb.
- Kaneel – For the cinnamon sugar.
How to Make Cinnamon Swirl Bread
This recipe is really easy to whip up. Here are all the critical steps in pictures.

Combine the liquid ingredients in a mixing bowl. Add the dry ingredients.

Stir the batter until it’s smooth and soft with no lumps.

Pour half of the batter in a pan line with parchment paper.

Combine the sugar and cinnamon and pour half of it on the batter.

Pour the rest of the batter into the pan.

Pour the rest of the cinnamon sugar on the batter.

Swirl a skewer in an S shape twice, not more.

Bake the bread for 50-55 minutes at 350 °F (180 °C).
Carine's baktips
Ik deel graag nog een paar tips voor het perfecte brood.
- Let the parchment paper overhang on the side to make it easier to pull the whole bread out after baking.
- Gently fold in the self-rising flour with a rubber spatula to keep the batter light and avoid overmixing, which would make a denser crumb.
- If the top of your loaf begins to darken too quickly, cover it loosely with a piece of foil after about 40 minutes of baking.
- Let the bread cool completely (about 3 hours) before slicing to maintain a moist, fluffy texture throughout.

Thank you for sharing this recipe! So delicious!!
It’s a pleasure to share with you!
Just a quick question. Is there anything that could be used in place of the oil?
I haven’t made this recipe oil-free, usually same amount of unsweetened applesauce work well.
