Ingredients  

Bread

Icing


Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray; set aside.
  • In a large bowl with a hand mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add in the eggs and vanilla and mix just until combined then mix in the sour cream and milk until incorporated; set aside.
  • In a separate large bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  • Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and stir in until just combined and no flour streaks remain.
  • Lastly, fold in the sprinkles but do not overmix them or they could bleed into the batter.
  • Spread into the prepared loaf pan and bake for about 60 to 70 minutes or until a toothpick comes clean from the center and the top is just golden. Remove from the oven and cool in the pan for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, make the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, heavy cream, and vanilla. Spread the icing over the cooled bread and smooth out with a rubber spatula.
  • Sprinkle with extra sprinkles if desired then let set then slice and serve.

Notes

  • If your bread is browning too quickly, you can place a foil tent over it while it finishes baking.
