I am not  sure what the name of this bread/cake is… or whether it is a yeasted cake or a cake-like bread! My aunt gave me the recipe on a piece of paper.  I have tried to search for it online to give credit to the original recipe but could not find it. I am sure my aunt must have gotten the recipe from somewhere!!

This is a quick cinnamon bread/cake. Made with yeast but does not rise like a bread, just rests for 10 minutes after mixing the batter & putting it into a prepared baking dish.  This bakes for only 30 minutes so when you have a craving for cinnamon buns this could very well do the trick! Very simple to put together and delicious!

It is very easy to make this recipe parve/non-dairy…use almond milk & vegan margarine! 

 

Here is the recipe

Ingredients

Batter

1 1/2 cups flour

1/4 cup sugar

2 envelopes of Rapid Rise Yeast ***or if you yeast in bulk use 4 1/2 tsp

2/3 cup very warm milk

2 tbsp butter, melted

2 tbsp oil

1 egg

 

Cinnamon Mixture

3 tbsp butter, melted

1/4 cup brown sugar

1 1/2 tsp cinnamon

 

Icing

1 cup icing sugar

2 tbsp milk

1 tbsp butter, melted

1/2 tsp vanilla

 

***Since there is melted butter in all of the parts to this.. I just melted it all at once so, a total of 6 tbsp of butter

Method

DO NOT PRE-HEAT THE OVEN

Spray an 8×8 pan

1. Mix the batter ingredients together and put into the prepared pan
2. Let rest for 10 minutes… the batter does not ‘rise’
3. While the batter is resting, mix the cinnamon mixture together and put on top of the batter
4. With your fingers, poke holes all the batter making sure the topping gets down into the batter…
5. Bake in a cold, NOT PRE-HEATED 350F oven
6. Bake for 25-30 minutes  I baked mine for 30 minutes
7. Remove from the oven and let cool of 10 minutes
8.  While this is cooling, mix up the icing
9. Put the icing on top while warm. You can drizzle it or spread it all over like I did

Cut into squares & enjoy!!
