Ingredients

FOR THE BREAD:

  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 ½ tsp vanilla extract, divided
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ cup milk

FOR THE TOPPING:

  • cup melted butter
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup light brown sugar

Instructions

  • Grease and flour a loaf pan and preheat the oven to 350 F (175 C).
  • Using a stand or hand-held mixer, cream together 1/4 cup oil and 1 cup granulated sugar until smooth and creamy. Add 2 eggs and 1 tsp vanilla extract and mix until well blended.
  • Add the flour, baking powder, salt, and milk until well combined and smooth.
  • Place ½ cup of this batter in a measuring cup or small bowl, and stil in ½ tsp of ground cinnamon and ½ tsp vanilla extract.
  • Into your prepared loaf pan pour half of the main batter (the one without cinnamon).

  • Repeat layers and Using a skewer or butter knife, swirl the two batters together and bake for 45-50 mins or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
  • Let the loaf cool down for 15 mins, and while the loaf is cooling down, make the topping. Mix the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon together in a small bowl and then place this mixture in a shallow dish. Melt the butter in a separate shallow dish.
