My family loves when I make mini loaves of bread, to slice and enjoy in the mornings. The kids have it as a snack, while my hubby and I have it for our breakfast, with coffee of course!
Since typically I make banana bread, blueberry bread, or strawberry banana bread, I decided to change things up this week. I was in the mood for something with a cinnamon sugar base, so I made this snickerdoodle bread. This recipe makes about 5 mini loaves of bread, or you can make 2 large loaves.
Not only is this a great morning treat or snack, but it also freezes well, so you can stock up for back to school baking!! My kids loved this and asked me to make it again! I sent some to work with my hubby and it was a bit hit there too!!
Enjoy!
