Wait, there was a glaze?

Wait, there was a glaze? Looking back at this recipe I realize we forgot the glaze - but that's Ok, my kids aren't always excited about the glaze on things. It's been a while since I made something delicious for Sunday morning breakfast. It was time! this quick bread tossed together very quickly. Did I pull it out too early and the middle sunk - absolutely. Did I have it in there a lot longer than necessary? Yup. Was I tired of the oven being turned on, on a very hot day? Sure was. That's Ok, the sunk in middle tasted delicious! Sliced up and slathered in some Aldi brand Country Crock - delicious! Oh and that glaze? Guess it's not necessary since we didn't miss it.

Cinnamon Roll Quick Bread
Ingredients
For the bread
2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk I used whole milk
1 egg
1/4 cup oil I used canola oil
For the cinnamon sugar swirl
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon
For the vanilla glaze
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon milk

Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease a glass 9 x 5 inch loaf pan. Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Combine the milk, eggs and oil. Stir into the dry ingredients just until combined. Don’t over stir.
To make the cinnamon sugar, whisk the cinnamon and sugar together in a small bowl. Pour only half of the batter into the loaf pan. Sprinkle with half the cinnamon sugar mixture. Top with the other half of the batter and then the remainder of the cinnamon sugar mixture.
Gently run a knife through the batter a few times to create the cinnamon swirl. TAKE CARE not to swirl the batter too much or you'll mix in all the cinnamon sugar mixture and you won't have a swirl inside the finished bread.
Bake for 55-60 minutes. Test for doneness with a knife or toothpick to make sure the bread has cooked through before removing it from the oven. Cool 10 minutes in the pan and then remove from the pan to cool on a wire rack.
Allow the bread to cool completely and then stir together the powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk to make a glaze and drizzle over the bread.
