  3. Stir in sugar, beaten egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Sprinkle baking soda and salt over the mixture, then fold in all-purpose flour gently.

  6. Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  7. Sprinkle three-quarters of the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the batter.
