Dolly Parton’s Cinnamon Donut Loaf

🍩✨ Dolly Parton’s Cinnamon Donut Loaf ✨🍩

A simple, tender loaf with that classic cinnamon-sugar donut flavor—perfect with coffee! ☕🤎

📝 Ingredients

For the loaf:

  • 1½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ½ cup milk
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the topping:

  • ½ cup butter, melted
  • ½ cup powdered sugar

👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a small loaf pan or several mini loaf pans.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  3. In another bowl, whisk the milk, oil, egg, and vanilla until combined.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Don’t overmix.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan(s).
  6. Bake for about 30–40 minutes for a standard small loaf, or until golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Mini loaves may take 20–25 minutes.
  7. Let cool for about 10 minutes, then remove from the pan.
  8. Brush the warm loaf generously with melted butter.
  9. Dust generously with powdered sugar. For an extra donut-like finish, you can also sprinkle with a little cinnamon sugar.

🤎 Tip

For the best texture, serve it slightly warm with coffee or tea. The buttery cinnamon flavor is especially good when freshly baked!
