1. Preparation: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease two loaf pans and set them aside.
2. Make the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, 2 cups of sugar, and eggs until smooth and creamy. Add the buttermilk and mix until well combined. Gradually add the flour and baking soda, stirring until the batter is smooth and no lumps remain.
3. Layer the Batter: Divide half of the batter evenly between the prepared loaf pans, spreading it out to cover the bottom of each pan.
4. Prepare the Cinnamon/Sugar Mixture: In a separate bowl, combine the remaining 2/3 cup of sugar and 2 teaspoons of cinnamon to create the cinnamon/sugar mixture.
5. Create Cinnamon Swirls: Sprinkle approximately three-fourths of the cinnamon/sugar mixture over the batter in the loaf pans, reserving the rest for later. Use a knife to gently swirl the cinnamon/sugar mixture into the batter in each pan.
6. Add Remaining Batter: Pour the remaining batter over the cinnamon layer in each pan, spreading it out evenly.
7. Finish with Cinnamon Topping: Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon/sugar mixture evenly over the top of each loaf.
8. Swirl and Bake: Use a knife to gently swirl the cinnamon/sugar mixture into the top layer of batter. Place the loaf pans in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaves comes out clean.
9. Cool and Serve: Allow the bread to cool in the pans for 20 minutes before carefully removing them from the pans to cool completely on a wire rack. Once cooled, slice and serve this delicious Amish Cinnamon Bread.
10. Enjoy: Whether enjoyed warm with a cup of coffee in the morning or served as a sweet treat after dinner, this Amish Cinnamon Bread is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. Enjoy the comforting flavors and homemade goodness of this delightful bread!
