Low-FODMAP ‘Snickerdoodle’ Cinnamon-Swirl Quick Bread Recipe; Gluten-free

Print Friendly Version

Snickerdoodle Bread recipes were calling to me from the pages of Pinterest.

Rachel….Rachel….Bake me….you know you want to….

Make me low-FODMAP and absolutely delicious!

Someone in there must know my infatuation with breads, cakes and CINNAMON. How do they do that?!

I was futile to resist.  I can’t deny my preference for making a quick bread over muffins (I am just not that patient with scooping the batter into those little wells).  And, I adore cinnamon and sugar, especially when it is swirling in the center and drizzling over the top of a low-FODMAP sweet treat (like my low-FODMAP Gooey Cinnamon Buns).

The only part I don’t like is that I have to wash a lot of bowls with this recipe 🙂

Get your family to do the dishes! (HAHA)

This low-FODMAP Cinnamon Swirl Bread makes a generous sized loaf that is full of flavor.  There is a thick cinnamon swirl center and a crackly cinnamon topping.  If you love cinnamon, this low-FODMAP Quick Bread will make you smile all day long.  Isn’t that why they call it a snickerdoodle?  Moist, sweet, aromatic and SOOOOO GOOOOOD.

For topping:

Optionals:

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 350 F, place rack in center of oven
  • Grease loaf pan with shortening, line with parchment paper with a 1 inch overhang, grease parchment
  • Prepare the filling: Whisk together 2 tablespoons sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon in a small bowl; set aside for later
  • Prepare the topping: Whisk together 3 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon sugar, 3 tablespoons low-FODMAP flour, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon and melted butter or coconut oil in a separate small bowl; set aside
  • Mix low-FODMAP flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, salt, cinnamon and sugar in medium bowl
  • In a separate large bowl of stand mixer, beat eggs until light and fluffy on high

  • Bake for 70-85 minutes or until tester is clean (ovens vary, yours may need a little more or a little less!)
    • It is OK if the top cracks a bit
    • Check for doneness about 10 minutes early
  • Cool for 5 minutes, then remove from pan and cool on wire rack
  • Glaze if desired (but it is wonderful on its own)

The perfect tender crumb!

    This bread is the bomb. Seriously. Do not hesitate. Make it right now, you won’t regret it. Absolutely incredible. I doubled the filling for an even thicker layer.
