Notes
For best texture, blend cottage cheese first to ensure smooth, fluffy loaf.
Do not overmix batter to avoid tough bread.
Use a sharp knife to create deep swirls for a beautiful cinnamon ribbon.
Let bread cool completely before slicing to prevent crumbling.
For deeper cinnamon flavor, let filling sit for 5 minutes before swirling.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
Reheat in microwave for 15-20 seconds or toast for a crispier exterior.
Freezes well for up to 2 months; thaw overnight or reheat from frozen.
