Cinnamon-Roll Bread with a twist

My teenage son rarely has much time for breakfast and always looks for something fast to eat like a smoothie or a muffin. I prepared a cinnamon-roll bread that was a big hit so here is the recipe.  This is an easy no-yeast recipe which is hard to mess-up and the streusel-like topping filling makes it yummy!

Cinnamon-roll breadIngredients

  • 1 cup each of whole-wheat and all purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp of baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon of salt
  • 1/3 cup of unsweetened applesauce (in lieu of sugar)
  • 3/4 cup of 1% milk
  • 2 teaspoon of vanilla
  • 1/3 cup of sour cream (or greek yogurt)

For the swirl

  • 1/3 cup of granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoon of cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoon of water

For the glaze

  • 1/3 cup of powdered sugar
  • 2 teaspoon of milk

Steps to make the recipe

Pre-heat you oven to 350F and spray a bread pan with non-stick cooking spray.

In a large bowl, mix the first 3 dry ingredients and all the other ones in a smaller bowl. Add the wet ingredients to the large bowl and mix with a fork.IMG_3994
