Ingredients
Scale
Bread
- ½ cup unsalted butter softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2½ teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs
- ½ cup sour cream
- ¼ cup whole milk
- 1¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ⅔ cup Christmas sprinkles plus more for topping
Icing
- 1¼ cups powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and spray a 9×5-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.
