Cinnamon Bread (Amish Bread Alternative)

Yum

February 7, 2014 by Jodi + Leave a Comment

Have  you ever been lucky enough (or maybe unlucky) to be given the starter for Amish friendship bread?

I have, and I will admit I love the stuff.  It’s absolutely delicious and I could easily down a loaf all by myself. It’s moist, sweet but not too sweet, and completely scrumptious.  Unfortunately after time, the whole process of squishing the bag, adding more ingredients and then more squishing  gets to be a major pain in the butt and you kind of end up having a love/hate relationship with Amish friendship bread.  It’s ok the first time around, but when you divide the starter into four batches and give three away and keep one for yourself (because heaven forbid you give them all away) then you have to go through that whole squishing/mushing/adding/squishing  process again.  It becomes a bit of a nuisance.

If you feel the same way I do about this delicious, but annoying bread, then I have come to your rescue.  I saw this on Pinterest a while back and finally got around to making it.  Oh I wish I hadn’t waited so long to make this heavenly bread.  It is every, single bit as fabulous as Amish friendship bread without all the hassle of squishing/mushing .

We slathered butter all over these beautiful slices and we devoured this bread.  It’s so good it doesn’t even really need the butter, but we are a butter-loving family and butter goes on pretty much everything at our house! This bread is so simple to make.  The hardest part is waiting for it to bake!  Hope you love it as much as we do!
