Snickerdoodle Bread
"Bread that has snickerdoodle cookie flavor should make everyone happy. I created the subtle yet special tang that snickerdoodle cookies are known for by incorporating sour cream into the batter. It also helps keep the bread soft, fluffy, and moist. Between the cinnamon-sugar on top, cinnamon in the batter, and the cinnamon chips, the bread is full of wonderful and prominent cinnamon flavor without being overpowering. Recipe makes two small/med 8×4-inch loaves. Bread freezes well and it makes great gifts, but the heavenly smell that permeates your entire house while it bakes will cause you to devour the first loaf and you'll be onto the second loaf in no time...."
