I had to look them up. Along the way I found this King Arthur Flour recipe, Cinnamon Chip Loaf.

I was thinking they would be good in my "Yogurt Bread" recipe, because it is good with raisins. In fact, the combo might be great since I often put cinnamon sugar on it when I make it.

Geez, I'm such a dummy, I should have copied the recipe! I'm sure KA Flour won't mind, as long as you use their flour when you make it! ;)

For 1 1/2-Pound Loaf
1 cup less 1 tablespoon water
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 egg
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
2 tablespoons non-instant dried milk
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons sugar
3 cups King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
2 1/2 teaspoons instant yeast
3/4 cup cinnamon chips

Place all of the ingredients except the cinnamon chips into the pan of your machine, program for raisin or mixed bread, and press Start Add the chips at the signal. (If your machine doesn't have an "add-in" cycle, program it for basic or white bread, and add the chips about 5 minutes before the end of the final kneading cycle.) Yield: 1 loaf.

To make this loaf without a bread machine: Mix and knead all the ingredients for the 1 1/2-pound loaf by hand or mixer until youâÂÂve made a soft, smooth dough. Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl. Cover the bowl, and allow the dough to rise, at room temperature, until it's nearly doubled in bulk, about 60 to 90 minutes. Gently deflate the dough and form it into an 8" log. Place the dough into a greased 8 1/2" x 4 1/2" loaf pan. Cover the loaf, and allow the bread to rise until it's crested about 1" over the rim of the pan, about 1 hour. While the dough is rising, preheat the oven to 350ðF. Bake the bread for 40 to 45 minutes, tenting it lightly with aluminum foil about halfway through baking. The bread's crust will be golden brown, and the interior of the finished loaf should measure 190ðF on a digital thermometer. Remove the bread from the oven, gently loosen the edges, and turn it out of the pan. Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing.

I will second the KA Cinnamon Chip Bread recipe. I have made many many loaves from this recipe. Sometime I iced the loaf with a simple icing. Gave lots of loaves away......it was always a winner for bake sales, benefit cake walks, and such.

Great timing, I had bought some cinnamon chips a few months ago & need to use them.

Thank you lpinkmountain for the recipe. When you say simple icing, Shirl36, exactly what do you mean? The cinnamon chip bread we bought at the Farmers' Market had a thin coating on the outside, and was the best we've ever eaten. Can hardly wait to try and duplicate it.

2 cups Confection sugar, 1 Tb of butter, enough milk to make it spreadable, just ice the top of loaf.

Thank you shirl36.

Ummm, thanks? because now I need to make cinnamon bread and I have a "strict" rule about not turning on the oven in the summer!

Sounds so yummy, I can almost smell it.
