Cinnamon Bread FAIL
The recipe seemed so simple. The plan - make sweet bread to enjoy over the Easter Holiday. Unfortunately, we all know the saying about the best laid plans.
Above is a photo of the bread that had been destined to be shared with my family at my cousin's Easter Dinner. I wish I would have snapped the picture when it came out of the oven - it would have been the cover model of "The most perfect loaf of bread to ever come out of your oven" magazine. Instead, I sat it on the cooling rack, grabbed the girls as well as our two new puppies and went for a stroll. Coming back inside, I noticed the bread didn't look so perfect. Getting closer, I gasped. The center of my bread was missing!!!!
I believe my bread should have stayed in the oven another minute or two. If I would have just waited, I would have been able to take my perfect looking bread to my cousin's. Instead, we had a centerless loaf of cinnamin bread for breakfast the next day.
The bread isn't bad. I may make it again . . . if only to show that I can make a loaf that doesn't have the center up and disappear!
