I made this today and found that the cooking time was less than needed. I actually need 70 min for it to be done on the inside but it was slightly burnt on the edges. The icing just melted into the loaf but that didn't matter. Overall a wonderful tasting recipe! Bringing it to work tomorrow! -
I just made this bread and it was amazing!!! I followed the recipe to the T but I also added raisins. The cook time was closer to 70 minutes (I used a dark loaf pan). This is my new go-to recipe. -
I made this yesterday. I made a little change and added some chopped pecans to the sugar/cinnamon mixture. I gave the bread away, so I didn't get to taste it. I was told that it was delicious. :) Thank you for posting this recipe! -
Easy, delicious, and stunning! This is done in no time flat, and is so impressive to look at! I think using a springform pan or round pan would make it look even more impressive - and you could double it and make a gorgeous bundt cake, too. Thanks nana heisey, for a wonderful recipe! -
WOW, if I could give this more than 5 stars I would!! This is absolutely the best. I don't keep buttermilk on hand, so here's what I did. I took a measuring cup and put 1 tbs. of white vinegar in it then added skim milk up to the 1 cup line. I also just recently moved and couldn't find my loaf pan. I used my cast iron skillet instead, and I won't ever use anything else. I can't even believe how good this recipe is. THANK YOU NANA!!!!!!!!

For those of us who don't have buttermilk: (- 1 tablespoon white vinegar, OR lemon juice - 1 scant cup milk) Step 1. Measure one tablespoon of white vinegar or lemon juice into a liquid measuring cup. Step 2. Add in a scant cup of milk and fill to the 1 cup measurement line. Step 3. Stir the mixture together and let sit for 5 minutes. source: https://www.mybakingaddiction.com/buttermilk-substitute/ (Sorry for the confusing formatting, it's the website not me)

My all time favorite thing to do is cook and bake. My love for cooking began my first year at college. It has grown into an obsession with recipes. Fortunately, my husband is supportive :) I love the Taste of Home magazines. Most of the recipes I try from their publications are outstanding. I also enjoy running long distances and exercising.
