# Instructions:
01 -
Turn on your oven to 350°F (175°C). Butter up a 9x5-inch loaf pan. Mix the flour, salt, and baking powder in a medium-size bowl.
02 -
Whip the canola oil, butter, and sugar together until light and fluffy (about 3-4 minutes). Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla. Slowly mix in the dry ingredients and buttermilk in turns, starting and finishing with the dry mix.
03 -
Scoop out about 3/4 cup of the batter and put it into a different bowl. Stir in the brown sugar, cinnamon, and molasses until it’s all combined.
04 -
Drop half of the plain batter into the loaf pan. Add dollops of the cinnamon batter and swirl it around. Do the same with the rest of the batters.
05 -
Put the loaf in the oven and bake it for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out mostly clean. Let it sit in the pan for 10 minutes to cool.
06 -
Melt butter in a shallow dish. In another dish, combine the sugars and cinnamon. Roll the cooled bread in the butter, then in the sugar mix. Let it cool completely before you cut into it.
