Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder Make sure your baking powder is fresh for the best rise.
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk
  • 3 large eggs For a substitute, use applesauce or a flaxseed meal.
  • 1/2 cup melted butter

Cinnamon Swirl

  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup melted butter

Icing

  • Icing (for drizzling)

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Mix until well blended.
  • Gradually add in the milk, eggs, and melted butter to the dry mixture. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.

Making Cinnamon Swirls

  • In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and melted butter.
  • Drizzle this mixture over the cake batter and use a knife or spatula to swirl it gently into the batter.

Baking

  • Bake the cake in the preheated oven for approximately 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool for a few minutes, then serve warm or at room temperature. Drizzle with icing before serving.

Notes

For extra flavor, add a splash of vanilla extract to the batter. It pairs wonderfully with coffee or tea. Consider adding some fresh fruit or whipped cream for a delightful touch. To store leftovers, let the cake cool completely and cover it with plastic wrap or aluminum foil. It can be kept at room temperature for 2-3 days or refrigerated for up to a week. Wrap tightly in plastic and foil before placing in the freezer for longer storage.
