Ingredients
Scale

- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients alternately with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon for the swirl.
- Spread half of the batter into the prepared baking pan. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the batter.
- Dollop the remaining batter over the cinnamon-sugar layer and sprinkle with the remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture.
- Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For an extra touch, you can drizzle a simple glaze made from powdered sugar and milk over the cooled cake.
- Ensure your butter and eggs are at room temperature for the best cake texture.
