Even though we're on the "fight diet" at work, I can't possibly put myself on a baking hiatus for that long. With fall right around the corner I've been craving cinnamon like crazy. I hope this little concoction is received well by my fellow Cityzens :)
Cinnamon White Chocolate Chip Loaf
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups flour
Generous pinch of salt
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 heaping teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup shortening
3/4 non-fat plain yogurt
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
Topping
3 tablespoons confectioner's sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
2. Butter the bottom of an 8 inch bread pan then line with parchment paper. Create an overhang on the long sides of the pan. This will make it easier to remove the bread
3. In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, baking soda, cinnamon, and sugar
4. In a medium bowl, using an electric mixer, combine the shortening and yogurt. Mix on medium low speed until smooth
5. Fold the yogurt mixture into the dry ingredients using a rubber spatula until just combined. Fold in the white chocolate chips. Spread the batter in the pan
6. To make the topping, combine the confectioner's sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle over the batter
7. Bake for 40 - 45 minutes or until top is golden brown. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, using the parchment paper, remove the loaf to a rack to cool completely
