Ingredients
  

For the swirl
  • 1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
For the bread
  • 2 cups gluten free flour blend Ensure it contains xanthan gum or guar gum.
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup milk Can be substituted with non-dairy milk.
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled Can use dairy-free butter.
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a small bowl, mix 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon. Set aside for later use.
  2. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a loaf pan.
  3. In a large bowl, combine gluten free flour blend, 1 cup granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until well combined.
Baking
  1. Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon swirl mixture over the batter. Pour the remaining batter on top and sprinkle the last of the swirl mixture over it.
  2. Use a knife to gently swirl the batter, creating a marbled effect.
  3. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool before slicing.
