Cinnamon Swirl Bread
1 1/3 C. Sugar, divided
2 tsps. ground cinnamon
2 C. flour
1 Tbsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1 egg, beaten
1 C. milk
1/3 C. vegetable or canola oil

Preheat oven to 350. Lightly grease a 9x5" loaf pan. In a small bowl, mix together the cinnamon and 1/3 C. sugar. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt and remaining 1 C. sugar. Combine egg, milk and oil and add to flour mixture. Stir until moistened.
Pour half of the batter into the pan. Sprinkle with half of the cinnamon sugar. Repeat with the remaining batter and cinnamon sugar. Swirl a knife through the batter to marble it.
Bake 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into center of loaf comes out clean. Let cool in pan 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
