Holiday Ornament Day 2: December 9, 2019 Monday

Welcome to Day 2 of the 12 Days of Kitchen Holiday Giveaway!

Today’s challenge is easy and takes us back to the basics. We always talk about Amish Friendship Bread starter as the building block for the bread (and it is), but there’s another secret ingredient, too.

Holiday Ornament The Recipe

Today’s featured recipe is our basic Cinnamon-Sugar Mixture. Yup, you got that right! This is the secret ingredient that makes your Amish Friendship Bread stand out from any other loaf on the bake sale table. It gives this moist bread an extra special crunch.

    I thought I posted here on the 9th, but I didn’t see it, so I’m posting it again, sorry if it duplicates! I commented on the cinnamon sugar post.

    since we can not use regular sugar I want to plan using Splenda brown sugar with cinnamon. My husband can not use regular sugar now because of his dibetics . so this year’s baking will be a little challenge for me.. I am so thankful to find this website. I am planning on making some up in a small jar to use on cookies and cakes.
    thank you .
    I love your website and refer to it often.

    I love Amish Friendship bread. I have never dusted my pans with cinnamon and sugar. Sounds wonderful. I also so use the cinnamon and sugar on toast. It’s mouthwatering. Also on french toast. yum!

    I left a comment on the cinnamon-sugar recipe! I’ve stopped baking during these busy holiday times, so all this is making me hungry for Amish friendship bread! I’m kind of punishing myself. LOL!!!

    I read and commented on your cinnamon sugar post? Like you, I usually make it ahead and have it ready to dust the pans and sprinkle on top!! We enjoy making cinnamon toast with it also!!
