Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and cinnamon until well combined.
- Prepare Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined—be careful not to overmix.
- Create Cinnamon Swirl: In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar and cinnamon for the swirl (if desired). Pour half of the batter into the prepared dish. Sprinkle half of the brown sugar mixture over this layer before topping with the remaining batter. Finally, sprinkle the rest of the brown sugar mixture on top.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Glaze: While cooling slightly, mix powdered sugar with a little milk to create a glaze. Drizzle over slices before serving.
