Cinnamon Sugar Donut Bread

Cinnamon sugar donuts are an American staple when it comes to sweet breakfasts and delicious desserts. I have come up with the idea to make a decadent breakfast loaf inspired by this amazing taste, and the end result is so stunning that from now on, I will have this recipe for breakfast at least once a week. You will feel the sweet cinnamon flavor in every bite, and the crunch on top comes from the granulated sugar for a perfect texture.
