  5. Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon swirl mixture over the batter.
  6. Pour the remaining batter on top and sprinkle the last of the swirl mixture over it.
  7. Use a knife to gently swirl the batter, creating a marbled effect.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  9. Allow the bread to cool before slicing.
