Making the batter:
Heat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) before using it.
In a big bowl, mix the soft butter and 2 cups of sugar until smooth and fluffy.
Add the eggs one by one, then mix in the buttermilk.
In another bowl, mix the flour and baking soda using a whisk.
Slowly mix the powdered ingredients into the liquid mixture, stirring until they are just mixed together.
Making the Cinnamon Sugar Blend:
Mix 2/3 cup of sugar with cinnamon in a small bowl. Stir thoroughly.
Making bread:
Prepare two loaf pans measuring 9 by 5 inches.
Put an equal amount of the batter into each of the two pans.
Put half of the cinnamon sugar mix on the batter in each pan.
Put the rest of the batter in the pans and sprinkle the rest of the cinnamon sugar mixture on top.
Use a knife to mix the cinnamon sugar into the batter in a swirling motion.
Cooking in an oven.
Put in the oven that has been preheated for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the bread comes out clean.
Let the bread cool in the pans for 20 minutes before taking it out to cool completely on a wire rack.
How to serve your Amish Cinnamon Bread: Enjoy it warm with butter or honey for extra sweetness. It goes great with a cup of coffee or tea.
Storage: You can wrap this bread in plastic and keep it at room temperature for 4 days or in the fridge for a week.
