Ingredients

3 cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 cup butter softened
2 cup sugar
4 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 cup sour cream
1 ½ cup cinnamon chips 1 pkg. Hershey's
2 tablespoons flour
2 tablespoons sugar

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350º Spray the bottom of five mini loaf pans (5 ¾ x 3 ¼ x 2 ¼) with cooking spray with flour.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 cups flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter and 2 cups sugar, until fluffy, about two minutes. Add eggs one at a time mixing well after each addition. Add vanilla and sour cream and mix to combine. Add flour mixture and mix just until combine. Do not overmix. Coat the cinnamon chips with 2 tablespoons flour and stir into batter.
Spoon batter into greased pans, no more than ⅔ full. Combine 2 tablespoons sugar and 2 teaspoons cinnamon and sprinkle over the top of the batter in the pans.
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until a toothpick inserted into a crack in the center of the loaf comes out clean. Remove from oven and let cool 10 minutes. Remove from pan and let cool completely before serving.

Notes

This snickerdoodle bread makes an excellent base for French toast - the extra cinnamon-sugar coating caramelizes beautifully on the griddle.
For an extra special twist, try adding finely chopped toasted pecans to the cinnamon-sugar topping for a delightful crunch.
The bread tastes even better on day two when the cinnamon flavors have had time to develop and meld together.
You can also make this in two 9x5 loaf pans. Bake at 350º for 60 to 70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into a crack in the center of the loaf comes out clean.
