Cinnamon Swirl Quick Bread Recipe

 

A coworker of mine wanted a recipe for a cinnamon quick bread. So I told her I would find her one and make it for our Thanksgiving breakfast party. Our little parties really only last about 20 minutes but it’s fun to eat, laugh and share!

We really don't need a reason to celebrate, everyday is a celebration with these girls. We have so much fun together. I can say I love my job because of these girls and the others too! But we do take every opportunity we can get to throw a little party..

So I brought this cinnamon quick bread and a pitcher of Vietnamese Coffee.

It sure had cinnamon all right. I really liked this bread but maybe just a little to much cinnamon for me.  Next time I will cut back and use 2 teaspoons! But that was just me. You decide!
