# Instructions:
01 -
Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and let it warm up. Coat a 9x5-inch pan with grease and dusting. Toss flour, salt, and baking powder together in a bowl.
02 -
In a mixing bowl, blend sugar, butter, and oil until it becomes airy (roughly 3 minutes). Add eggs one after another, mixing in between, then stir in vanilla. Gently mix dry ingredients and buttermilk bit by bit, starting and stopping with the dry stuff.
03 -
Scoop out 3/4 cup of your batter into another bowl. Sprinkle the brown sugar, cinnamon, and molasses over it and stir until combined.
04 -
Pour half your regular batter into the pan. Drop spoonfuls of half the swirl batter on top and gently mix to create a pattern. Do this again with the rest of each batter.
05 -
Place the pan in the oven for about 45 to 50 minutes. Once a toothpick mostly comes out clean, take it out and cool it inside the pan for 10 minutes.
06 -
Melt butter in a shallow dish. In another, mix brown sugar, white sugar, and cinnamon. Dip the cooled loaf into butter, then roll it in the sugar mix. Wait until it's fully cooled before cutting into slices.
