2 cups all-purpose flour

1 ¼ cups sugar, divided

3 teaspoons baking powder

3 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided

1 ¼ teaspoon salt

2 eggs

1 cup buttermilk

1/3 cup vegetable oil

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

3 tablespoons butter, melted

In a bowl, combine the flour, 1 cup sugar, baking powder, 1 ½ teaspoons cinnamon and salt.  In another bowl, combine the eggs, buttermilk, oil and vanilla; stir into dry ingredients just until smooth.  Pour half of the batter into a greased 9x5x3-inch loaf pan.  In a small bowl, combine the remaining sugar and cinnamon; stir in butter.  Drizzle half over batter; cut through with a knife to swirl.  Top with remaining batter.  Drizzle with remaining cinnamon/sugar mixture; swirl with a knife.  Bake at 350° for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.  Cool for 10 minutes before removing from the pan to a wire rack.
