Ingredients
  

Cake Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk Can be substituted with almond or oat milk for dairy-free version.
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs Can be replaced with flaxseed meal or applesauce as an alternative.
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar For the icing.
  • 1-2 tablespoons milk For the icing, adjust to desired consistency.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until thoroughly combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix well until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with dry ingredients. Stir gently until everything is fully combined.
  5. In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar with the cinnamon.
Baking
  1. Pour half of the cake batter into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the batter, followed by pouring the remainder of the batter on top.
  2. Take a knife and swirl it gently through the batter to create a marbled effect.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes. You’ll know it’s done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  4. Allow the cake to cool for a few minutes before drizzling it with icing made from whisking together powdered sugar and milk to your desired consistency.
