Amish Bread doesn’t require yeast or any kind of bread starter. This simple cinnamon speedy bread makes two loaves; one to keep, and one to give.
Instructions:
In a bowl of a stand mixer with a paddle attachment (or a mixing bowl with a mixing spoon), beat together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla extract.
Add the flour, buttermilk, and baking soda to the mixture. Now you’re going to layer the dough mixture between 2 bread loaf pans. Pour 1/4 of the batter into 2 bread pans.
Mix the sugar with the cinnamon. Sprinkle half of the mixture on top of the batter in the bread pans. Divide the remaining batter between the two bread pans. Finally, top each pan with the remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture. Use a toothpick or knife to create swirls on the top.
Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the center. Allow the bread to rest on a cooling sheet in the bread pans for about 20 minutes. The hardest part will be waiting for the bread to cool before digging in and topping it with butter!
