Do you ever want a comfort, down home dessert? This is one of the best! It says "Hey, I'm Home!"
It's so moist and full of cinnamon. It really is the perfect balance of sweetness and spice. I will say that it is probably not the prettiest though. I definitely swirl the cinnamon around, but I don't spend much time doing it because honestly....it all runs a bit together because it is so moist and tender. But it is so good it won't matter!
Give it a try and let me know what you think!
This cake is fabulous all year long! Don't hold out for fall. Cinnamon is good any time!
