| In a small bowl, mix ½ cup Sugar and 1 ½ tsp Cinnamon. Coat the greased pans with half the mixture. Pour your batter evenly between the two pans and sprinkle the remaining sugar mixture over the top of the batter. Bake for 1 hour and 7 minutes. Allow the bread to cool until it loosens evenly from the pan. If you keep a starter for yourself, you will be baking every 10 days. Fresh Amish bread every 10 days, YUM!! Alternate recipe: Omit vanilla. Reduce cinnamon to 1 tsp. Replace vanilla pudding with chocolate pudding. Add ½ cup chocolate chips and ½ cup coconut. |
